14" rear rotors BAER will they fit without any problems
I order a set of BAER rotors today from WCC and they talked me into the 2 piece rotors for the front and back. The front are 13" but the back are 14". The rear comes with a bracket to mount the calp since the rotor is two inches bigger. Does anyone have this set up and post some picture please. I'm running 18" wheels in rear the 2006 Z06 wheels

C6 Zo6 uses 19's in the rear. 18's in the front.

I've got 17" rims on my 67 Camaro. I just had 13" Baer rotors put on, and you can barely squeak a credit card between the caliper and the rim. So 14" should fit on a 18" wheel, but barely.

I have the same Baer Eradaspeed 2 piece rotors on my 01 with stock wheels. They fit perfectly with plenty of clearance (front only has about 1/4 inch to spare, back has close to 1/2 to spare) and they look GREAT!!! Get lots of complements on them with my red calipers. The front ones are actually 12.75 inch, they sent the wrong rotors to me the first round (13 inch) and they will not fit (trust me I tried).

I thought that you used C6 Zo6 front 18" X 9.5 wheels with +49 mm ofsets for the rear of your car...
If the wheels that you have now have C5 ofsets, your 17" front will fit the +2's Your rear wheels will fit radially because they are 19's but what is critical is how close the caliper face comes to the back of the spoke... again if you have C5 ofsets you should be ok...
