Default Bigger Rotors w/C6 ZO6 Calipers possible??

Ok, i read thru the brake f&q and didnt really find what i was looking for, i am trying to plan out the brake setup for my Sonoma GT project, and my original idea was to run some 18" wheels with the C6 ZO6 14" rotors and 2 piston C6 calipers, as i have a set of adaptors that will allow this setup on a set of 2in drop belltech blazer spindles.

But i have decided to go with some 20" wheels instead, and i want to run a bigger brake rotor to fill out the wheel better, somthing like a 15 or 16" rotor would be sweet, and i want to run the 6 piston ZO6 calipers.


Is there a company that sells a brake upgrade with bigger rotors for the C6 ZO6 that retains the stock calipers?

As much of the rotor as the calipers cover, I don't think you can stuff much more rotor in there and not have issues with the arc of the pads being different and missing sections of the rotors (if the caliper will slide over a rotor that is that large).
