Default 16" Wheel Brake Kits

Possibly looking into running 16" wheels.

For a C5Z, what brake kits fit under 16" wheels?

Thanks!

I believe our Essex/AP Racing Sprint Kit will likely clear, but check the downloadable wheel fitment template to be sure.

The caliper and disc we use in our kits are variants of what we originally sold into the asphalt late model market. Most of those guys were running 15's.

We used AP racing brakes from you guys on our Pikes Peak Evo back in 2012. Would love to work with you again

Thank you for the link.

I'm guessing you could cobble together the pbr stuff from a C4 corvette as early C4s had 16" wheels.

But we both know if you want an engineered solution that is going to work and be waaaay better than factory repurposed parts to call Essex.
