Caliper Alignment

Hey,

apparently my front brake caliper is not 100% centered over the disc. Is this an issue? I tried to move the caliper as much as possible on the postmount points but I am unable to change the alignment. The disc in the caliper is covering 99% of the pads.

What you are showing is normal, if the pads went all the way to the edge or over it would create an unwanted ridge in the pads.
What Hutch is describing is good advice for a fix on a completely different issue. I don't think he saw your red arrow in your photo illustrating the issue.
