Would it really matter the rear width being a just 2/5th of an inch not as wide? From a traction standpoint and aesthetics. Not so much really...
That said.... SWEET. I can't wait to see it in person.
I'm gonna try and buy a set of those brakes and retrofit it on my C5Z. Would beat the hell out of anything else available these cars (street brake wise, like brembo/ap/stoptechs)

They also will be more $$$$ than the brands you've mentioned (ceramic rotors, possibly caliper specific carbon pads.)
Even though I wish they could have stayed with Goodyear ( ), this car REALLY needs MUCH MORE tire (as far as compound stickiness goes) than the current Z06's runflats. Hopefully the "bibman's" Pilots will provide that (but somehow, I still doubt it ).
