I've done this on 2 of my cars now cos it was not an option. I upgraded to larger calipers and ground 2-3mm. Both cars were engineered without any problems at all.

THe gallaries are no-where close to the top of the calliper. Its a known practice in alot of places where brake upgrades are required.

The only other real choice is to get different offsets
Mate who ever engineered that, shouldnt have. , neither is a great option however spacing out 5 mm is fine. grinding a caliper, especially an after market ones is bloody stupid. with the heat they generate and the pressure,stress they are put through, its common sense not to grind a caliper.
