Question Grove wheel and brake upgrade

So during my condition inspection i needed new brakes so decided to upgrade to the Grove 56-213 kit. Grove told me that they've sold this kit to RVers for years and it fits fine. This kit includes new wheels with thicker discs and new two piston calipers. Install went fine with one exception. Brake caliper bleeder valve on bottom of caliper comes in contact/interferes with my wheel pant. Not sure if I could find a smaller bleeder valve or not. Otherwise I'd have to put a blister in the wheel pant. Really don't want to do that. Ideas? I also plan to call Grove as well.
