Will 13" Wilwoods fit under 17" ZR1 Rims?

Anyone know if the wilwood Superlite 6 Piston kit with 13" rotors will fit under a set of AFS 17x9.5 ZR1 front rims? Did a search but couldnt find anything.
Thanks

There should be a wheel templete. They might fit, I know a 12.8 C5 will fit since that is what I have. Try to find a templete.

If im not mistaken you need atleast 2" between the rotor size and the wheel diameter, and to be on the safe side subtract another inch from the rotor...so that means a 14" rotor...i think itd fit

Yup. I had that kit with 17" 10-spoke SS wheels and AFS ZR-1's with the 56 mm offset. They fit fine. A general rule of thumb that I got from both Baer and PBC (a Wilwood dealer, they do custom kits for anything) is that you need a wheel that is at least 4" bigger than the rotor size to fit properly with a fixed caliper.
