Stock C5 Rotor Size?
What are the stock sizes for rotors front and rear? Are those the same sizes as the C5 Z06?
Also, how many pistons in the front & rear calipers?
TIA

C4 guys don't really bother trying to put on the C5 rear rotors because there is nothing really to be gained and you'll have to redo your parking brake. On the front the C5 rotors are thicker than the J55 (13") C4 rotors. Also the brake pads have a larger contact (swept area) than the C4 pads. Would suspect that C5 calipers are a little stronger also, but can't imagine by much since the construction appears to be very similar.
By the way I had a '94 that I did the C5 front brake conversion on and it was a great improvement, but then again I had the base 12" rotors and factory pads on there.
