Default any larger rear rotor?

I am converting to the C5 13" front rotors, but are there any larger rotors for the rear? Can the C5 rear rotors be put on an F-body (they "should" fit right)?

The C5 rear rotor and caliper are virtually identical to the F-Body. Oh and they are 12" diam.

12" rear? but the fronts on the F-body are 11.8" and they look bigger than the rear?

Both front and rear rotors on a F-Body are ~12" diameter (within a fraction of an inch). The surface the brake pad contacts of course is different. Also the F-Body had a baby drum brake in the hat of the rotor for the parking brake.

The front brakes do a majority of the stopping anyway.
