Default Best brAkes (13.5”?) that fit stock 17” wheels

Curious if anyone knows what the best brake you cAn put under the stock 17” wheels are .

in my case i run ‘96 corvette grand sport wheels . 17x9.5” front, 17x11” rear

didnr brembo make 13.5” rotors and multi piston calipers for c4’s at some point?

already have j55 brakes, just planning for next upgrade

Yeah i have those too. The 96 grandsport brake calipers that say corvette on them.
Have the Baer eradispeed 2 piece rotors, braided hoses, hawk hp+ pads and drm brake bias spring.

my expensive baer eradispeed rotors are getting worn - i can barely see the slotting anymore

Hard to beat the Wilwood kits for the money. All the basic bells and whistles one would expect in a 13" package and a pretty capable design.
