Default caliper grinding

Anyone have any pics of grinding for there Weld wheels? I'm having real trouble getting my Pro-Stars to clear with the spacers. <img src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" border="0"> Thanks.

Put grease on the inside of the wheel, torque it down, spin a couple of times (wheel not you), remove wheels, grind until no more grease is being left on the caliper.

The grease idea works great. Make sure that you drive around and make some tight turns before you say the you are finished. Making the turn off of the 1/4 mile in Baytown is where mine started rubbing again.
