Message Calipers expanding from ambient temps to highest operating temps of ~350F:

350F-90F=260F
Calipers are roughly 3.25" in width.
Expansion is centered so 1.625" length from caliper center.
260F*1.625*.0000131=0.00553" expansion.

Unless you have about what a piston-bore clearance is for forged pistons between your wheel and caliper, you'll be ok.
