[QUOTE="Dane, post: 675041, member: 2494"] So, went out and drove about 10-12 miles. Nothing feels bad. I can't hear or feel anything grinding. The dab of paint remains untouched on that wear-line from the picture. All of the rest of my weights are still there. Nothing looks any different. I'm really starting to think that yes, the caliper is out slightly farther due to the new pads and if the wheels weights aren't TOTALLY flush to the outside, it's enough to clip them, as it did - mashing them into the other weights and the wheel a bit as they got pinched between the caliper and wheel.[COLOR="Red"] [SIZE=1]---------- Post added at 04:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 PM ----------[/SIZE] [/COLOR] I'm not sure what you mean. The pads seemed identical in dimensions to the stock pads when I held them up together (except for the new pads being thicker). They lined up and fit perfectly in the slots. The caliper bolts haven't put up any fight at all, even torqued right back down comfortably to the factory paint lines. [/QUOTE]
