Default Question about grinding calipers for prostars?

My question is, has anyone ever had a problem with you calipers after grinding to fit race wheels? Ive been working on this for a few days and have had to remove alot of material and im just wondering if that can weaken the caliper enought to matter. Thanks.

You have to do alot of grinding, Everytime you think your done you have to pull the wheel of and start grinding again I have done this many of times!!! You will be fine as long a keep test fitting the wheels.

Remember you can take it off but you cant add it on!

Thanks, thats what i wanted to hear. The entire time ive been grinding i was saying to myself "does everyone else go through this or just me." Ive probably got about 5 hours into the job so far and about 5 to go. But these wheels look awsome and im hopin to cut a 1.4 60 this time, so its all worth it. Ill do anything for that extra tenth of a second, lol.
