    Off center calipers?

    The issue with splitting the calipers is that there are no proper replacement parts for resealing the halves. Glad you solved your problem. :cheers:

    Off center calipers?

    Why? If the engineers thought those weren't important they would have not fitted them in the first place. Car companies go way out of their way to save 5 cents a car wherever they can.

    Off center calipers?

    This is one spindle only. More importantly, is the fitment offset the same on both sides of the vehicle?

    Those calipers are not supposed to be split open. I would not use them, but that's just me. Maybe the rotors are improperly machined or are not seated fully on the hubs or are mis-identified. If you still have the old rotors you could mount one up to see where it sits in relation to the caliper.
