Default What options for LT1 with C5 brake setup?

I have a 97 LT1 with C5 front brakes. What options do I have for skinnies that clear the calipers, and at the same time, would 15" clear the rear calipers?

Thanks.

I had the same thing (lg kit which was the bigger rotors and what not). I sold mine and just put stock sized breaks back on it to fit the 15" bogarts. More then likely that's what you'll end up doing.

Damn that is what I am hearing as well. Worse comes to worse I can downgrade to the LS1 brakes and it will still be a world of difference over the stock LT1 setup.

Steve at Bogart convinced me, my only alternative was a 16" wheel and I didn't like that idea. Good luck!
