Default C5 vs. F-body rear rotors
Is the "backset" of the rear rotors the same between the C5's and F-bodie's? I'm asking because I would like to use C5 rotors on the F-body. IF NOT, please say WHY it will not work (give exact reason).

The offset is different and they will not bolt on as a direct fit.

info: the C5 rotors are exactly 0.501" less backset than the F-body.....
