Best way to fix this is to get some 16 inch rims only the early 80 series came out with 15 inch wheels.

The early 80 series came out with 15inch rims then they got brake upgrade and went to 16's, I have heard of people grinding a bit off the brake calaper cos it only just hits but its not recomended

Yeah just go a 16in rim not worth the hassle if you get pinged for grinding callipers.

Navara offset rims are the best fit 15 inch sunny rim however, grind away, if you stuff it up i have a spare pair you can have. Only a small amount needs to come off and they are real thik.
