Default Question on DIY Big Brake installs - with Big Blacks and RS2 carriers

Is shaving the carrriers required with the 323 x 30 mm rotors? I've seen some references to a 1mm shave... I can't quite figure it out from the search.
thanks

Default RS2 caliper brackets require 1mm milling.

...on the bracket/strut mounting surface to center the A8L D2 rotors.

Centering is not required - some folks run it not centered.

I machined my brackets 1mm for this set-up.
