My point is: the wider the rotor...doesn't necessarily mean less clearance. If you bolt on a fixed caliper and it accepts a 1 inch thick rotor or a 1.1 inch rotor then the caliper doesn't move, does it? The pistons move into or out relative to the rotor. The body of the caliper and the caliper bracket doesn't move. As you wear the rotor and it becomes thinner...you don't get more clearance relative to the wheel, correct? Only the pistons and pads move towards the centerline of the rotor.

That's my point and I wasn't trying to keep your interest. I was just posting a message on the board for anyone interested in the topic.
