Depends on the offset of the BAER rotor. Also look at the cost of brake pads.

I think you will find a much better deal is a C5/C6 upgrade as opposed to BAER, StopTech or Prospeed.

I'm not sure what exactly you're asking...

Are you asking if you can use C5 rotors with Baer aftermarket calipers??

ok, Im not sure what you are asking exactly but I did the C5 upgrade on my 99 Trans am. You need the rotors, calipers, brake pads and a braket a bought from a guy on ebay. You can get the bracket from ws6store.com too.
