Default Re: Attention- 2002 ZL1 owners...rear wheel fitment.

Ray,

The front Z06 Brakes are different in size compared to the stock Z28 brakes. You will need at least 17" (18" fit fine) and a correct wheel offset or a spacer to fit onto the new Vette front brakes.

The rear Vette brakes are so similar to the Camaro brakes . . . that they are not worth mentioning to any wheel supplier. The Vette rotors are the same size in diameter; but, they are vented where the Camaro rotors are not, they weigh 3 pounds lighter than the Camaro rotors, and they look different. I was told that we didn't need to change them because they were not worth the hassle to make them fit; but, for those three reasons and the fact that we said that the ZL1's had Corvette brakes is why we went to the trouble to replace them for little gain.
