C5 brakes with 17" Torque Thrust IIs? I have 17 x 9 Torque Thrust IIs on the front of my Camaro. I know they have a smaller inside diameter than most other 17" wheels. Is anyone running C5 front brake with them, and if so what all needs to be done to make them work?

I dont have this setup, however I do have a C5 Z06 and a '69 Camaro with 17" torque thrust II's. If you let me know what your concerns car, I can gather measurements for you.
My Camaro has a Wilwood kit on it (their entry level kit) which I would HIGHLY recommend honestly, but let me know and I can help!
Also what brakes are currently on the car? Power or manual? I just went through hell trying to get my brakes working well with a 4 wheel disc conversion because I have low vacuum and aftermarket calipers at all 4 corners. Now they work exceptionally well...especially once they get a little bit of heat in them!
