Default 14" brakes work with skinnies

At this point I have my full set of 2000 camaro calipers rotors and pads (used) but id like to do 14" disks and cts-v calipers in front. Is that not possible? I'm keeping the rears from the camaro definitely so I guess that means slicks and 18aks instead.

Not a chance in hell you'll get a 15" wheel over the CTS-V brakes.

About the only way I can think of to make that work is if you could find a company that can make you an 18 inch skinny. Maybe Bogart, billet specialties, or CCW? I don't know if they can do that or not but they might. I think its Weld that makes some 17" ones now, but I can't think of any off-the-shelf 18" skinnies. I'd eventually like a drag wheel/tire setup when I can justify it, but I also want to do big brakes and if its one or the other it will be the brakes since my car is primarily a street application. So if you find a solution I'd definitely like to know!

Email me your rotor/caliper specifications, I can let you know if I can build our Bogart wheels to meet your specs.

If you don't have a spec sheet, go off of this one: www.sjmmanufacturing.com/brake.pdf
