Rear caliper touching H2 rims(both)
I noticed streaks all the way around the rims while rotating. This is the first time this has happened. Upon inspection there shows to be 1/8 inch of gap between the wheel and caliper(Does that gap change under hard braking?). Has anyone had this problem before? Should i put new brakes on the rear or grind down the caliper a bit. The caliper has a wee bit of aluminum on the upper humps of the casting.
Thanks,
Jerry

I had the same problem when I put them on my 03 3500. I had to grind the calipers down quite a bit before the wheel weights stopped rubbing on them....
BTW, mine only had this issue on the rears. The fronts were fine...
