It makes me ponder the question as to exactly how much of a difference the bigger brakes and rotors would make compared to a decent stock setup (blank brembos/hawk pads) seeing as you have to run a large tire with little sidewall that kills traction. Im sure the c6 setup would still win for sure but I wonder by how much and if it is worth it. Having to spend over $2k (before the CCWs to boot) when for a little more you can run an aftermarket brembo or stoptech kit and get the same effect while being able to keep and run smaller wheels with a lot more meat and traction.

With that said, Thanks for sharing pics and info tho OP

It appears I'll have to do the same shoe mod you did to get them to fit. I won't know about the rear caliper and rotor clearance until I get the parts in and do some mock-up. Probably won't touch it until late winter though.
