Ran some math and as long as I can safely remove 4-5 mm of material they will have no issues and have room left over

I'm guessing it's not cost effective yet for you to make a bracket that will work on the '14+s, but if/when you do I'll definitely buy a pair. I'd even be willing to pay extra for R & D...

Thanks man!

The wheels I was originally running when I did the 15" swap were cragar D windows and they had a ID of 13.25". I had to grind very little off of just the top and bottom of the caliper. It didn't suffice any strength at all. I also sold some brackets to a guy that put Billet Specialties on his truck and he also had to grind. More than I did but not enough to worry about the integrity of the caliper. I think his wheel ID was between 13" and 13-1/8". You'll be fine.
