CTS-V brake swap thread
#21
I had plenty of room on my aftermarket front 18s, but I put my stock front calipers on the back with the 14" rotors and had to do a LOT of grinding on the back of the caliper to get a bare minimum clearance.... 19" wheels or bigger to be safe

FYI if anyone needs the CTS-V Front Calipers mentioned in the thread below they are still available.

Gene says it now runs $399.13 + the shipping with bolts.
Not sure if that's the best price these days but thought it was worth mentioning.

amazon have best prices I could find for new ones. You can find sets quite cheap on Ebay used. I did go with amazon ones and I am very happy with my setup. I did go with 4 piston front and back.

Reviving an old thread, I know...
This one seemed to talk the most about different configurations people have tried.
Has anyone looked at using an 2011 Range Range Rover 5.0 rotor?
Centric 121.22015 for specs.
It is slightly thinner, by 3mm than stock GTO and Gen1 CTS-V rotors. Offers a 81mm height, closer to the GTO stock and 745i height. Slightlyt taller, 360mm vs. the 2010 Camaro & gen 1 CTS-V rotor of 355mm.
Figured it might be worth while looking into to avoid the use of spacers.
