It's a 13 inch setup so a 17 inch wheel should clear no problem

Doesn't that include the factory buzzsaws or just Grand Sport style rims?

My plan is to do some mock up today to figure out what wheels work and which do not.

On the street I run the larger (9.5in wide) buzzsaws.

My track wheels are 18x12 CCW's

I'll be picking up some front runners for drag racing, but those are so narrow they shouldn't be an issue.

Would these be the buzz saw wheels that you are talking about?

C4 A-mold wheels require a 3/8 spacer
C4 Buzz saw wheels require a new wheel all together, about a inch away from clearing
C5 Z06 wheel fits like a glove

I'll have to think on that.

If I need to purchase new street wheels, I might as well get 18's to match my racing wheels.

I'm not sure if I want to do that though.

Is the rotor the same thickness as stock or thicker? I currently have the J55 13" setup. Also what kind of pads can I use with this caliper?
