Uh, I'd hold up on the modification to the caliper bracket for a moment. Was the bracket rubbing before you changed the rotors? Where exactly on the rotor is it rubbing?

If everything was assembled correctly with the proper size rotor installed it shouldn't rub now if it didn't rub before. If it's rubbing now I'd take a real close look at your rotor, make sure it's the right size for this application, especially if it's rubbing on the outside edge of the rotor. If that's where it's contacting the rotor, you've got the wrong size rotor on there.

BTW, drilled brake rotors for our car FTL. And Brakemasters doesn't have the best Ebay rating in the world.
