Corvette Rotors
Corvette Rotors So I know that Corvette calipers will bolt right on my 98 Camaro but will I be able to use corvette rotors as well or do I have to modify to do that?? Thanks.

C5 rotors are 1 inch larger so you cannot bolt these on an F-Body without other modifications.
The F-body calipers have larger pistons then the C5 so they have more clamping force. The c5 calipers are a tad stronger, however.
I went with aftermarket brackets allowing me to run C5 rotors and f-body calipers.
Frankly, this was a waste. If you experience brake fade with the f-Body brakes then upgrade to c5 rotors. If not, just go with new f-body Brembo rotors and Hawk pads.

Here is a link with some information. If you have any questions please ask.
