yeah i think it is close too. i am told that 3mm is an exceptable gap. i don't know for sure though. the wheels are 18"X9.5" C6 replica wheels bought from OE wheels. they advertised the wheels as a 56mm offset but when i got the tires mounted i noticed 58mm stamped on the inside of one of the webs. each wheel has this 58mm stamped on them. i called OE wheels and asked if the 58mm on the wheel was the correct offset or if the 56mm they advertised was. they told me they aren't sure and that 2mm will not make a difference. i told them that for what i was doing with my brakes 2mm makes a HUGE difference!!! also i have the 15mm eibach spacer mounted here also. if you don't want a spacer you'll have to find 18"X9.5" wheels with a 41mm offset. that has to be the exact size, if you go with an 8" rim 41mm offset the caliper still will not fit.

I heard some other guys saying the calipers were on backorder. If you don't mind used ones, try calling different salvage yards. I think I still have the number I got mine from, pm me for the number.
Otherwise I saw in another post that the new ones are 6-piston...so not sure if those will be the same bolt-up design or not...but would like even more killer.

yea, there is a national back order on them right now.
so i dont think gmpartsdirect can get or has em.
pm me the number to that salvage yard if you can.
how much did you pay for yours?
the new cts v calipers are like 400 each.
and don't lnow if the Z06 calipers are the best bet just yet.

damn those 6 pistons look killer....looks like I might swap the 4-pistons for them if they bolt up the same.
As far as the price, I did my 4 piston brembos for $750 total (including eibach spacers and hawk ceramic pads), but the calipers were used...everything brand new would be closer to 1k
The 6 piston set up shown in the pic above for $3k is for the 2010 camaros, not the 4th generation f-bodies.
