That's a good question and exactly how I came to take the pictures. I just got them in tonight and gave the rotors a lick and a promise. After that I decided to take a look at the old rotors, thinking that these new ones would be marginally larger. When I looked tho'... I asked myself the same thing. My first thought was "Oh! a new set of rims... cool!"

So I walked over to the rears sitting on the floor, turned one over and set them inside and to be honest was surprised with they slipped inside the wheel.

The seller had a picture of the LS spindles in the ad, but they didn't show... and frankly, except to mock 'em up I was going to buy a new set anyways, so when they get here I'll bolt 'em up and we'll find out.

I don't have the pads in for that little mock up... but I don't know how high the calipers ride off the rotor. If it's much of anything, looks like we'll be going to 18" wheels. Seller said these were inside a set of 17s... but that may vary, I guess.

Not sure about all, but most aftermarket brake systems for f-body call for 17" front wheels.
