Just got a quick issue for you guys with my front struts (well brake caliper housing).

Now when i brought the ute off a mate im not sure if the struts are original or have been changed to i.e stanza or 200b struts. So im unsure of the the rotors on the struts.

Now the main issue is that the caliper housing on the rotors sticks out HUGE - like a good 15mm over the axle bolts which means that my Weld wheels do not go all the way down the axle and rub on the housing. Now using a spacer is certainly out because the wheel will be way to far out the front guards.

The other options are:

1. - Grind the housing back the 15mm so its flush (Now i can't exactly do it with an angle grinder cause it will be messy work - which means i may have to purchase a Di grinder)
2. replace the Caliper/rotor setup (Now not knowing the struts and unable to find a serial on them i have no idea what will fit or work)
3. Replace the complete struts and rotor assembly and calipers with - DSK245S 200B Short strut HD KYB Adjustable platforms SnS rotors girlock calipers, 1200, sunny, pair $1995 (From Datsport)
But with this option needing to know how these struts go and if ill end up with the same issue as i currently have. I'd Prefer to upgrade the whole package but i just need some insight from other people with this setup to see if they have had any wheel issues before i got out and blow 2 grand.

This is really the only thing i have not replaced on the car - so an upgrade my be the option has anyone used the aboved struts

Here is a Pic of the rotor's and calipers atm - Can someone help?
