I'm not too sure that would work since some wheels are tighter than others. You'd have to machine them down to dangerous levels to make sure they worked with all wheels. Mine required very little material to be removed. Some people have had to grind them down to the piston to make theirs fit.

awesome work... not to hijack the thread, but why not offer a brake caliper/wheel package?? That way proper fitment around the caliper would be ensured.
