I've read where some people still need to kiss the calipers with a grinder even with 30mm spacers.

I had to grind on one caliper only. Figured maybe the wheel was a little out of round? The fit is very tight.

Yep.

I still had to grind on both front calipers when I was running the LR3 18"/spacer combo.

Just take an angle grinder to the fins on the calipers as needed and then hit them with some spray paint to cover the bare metal. I ran this combo after grinding them for aprox. 40K miles with no issues.

Thanks for the info,
its rubbing on both sides on the front, looks like just mm or two will fix the problem but the shop I went to wouldn't do it. Guess I will have to do it myself.
