Default What size rotors are you using? Rim Diameter?

Was looking at your pics and the calipers appeared to be high on the rotor...it may just be the angle. I assume the brake pads are at the top edge of the rotor when installed.

Before I took the wheels apart, I would just take the hubs to your local machine shop and have them turned down.

Default Pictures?

Payton, where did you see pictures to make that observation about the calipers riding high? I do not see any in the thread?

John I fee your pain, my new subframe lead to needing new brakes which lead to new rims are a rebuild cost of my "other" new rims equal to the cost of buying the current Budnik! Only the subframe was budgeted!

Yes on the thread. And calipers are on correctly. Must be the angle of the picture.
