Default rear c6 rotors

Hi to you all,
this is my first post i was trying to search for an anwser but i couldn't find anything specific.

i was trying to get oem rotors for the rear and replace them, one is damaged and need it it any way and was going to do both.

I bought duralast rotors from autozone they were 49 dollars a piece, my autozone didn't have any, so i got them shipped to my house. anyway long story short they are about inch bigger then stock so Obviously the calipers do not fit over them, is there any brackets so I can work with them or am I sol and have to return them and get new ones.

If any one got any imput I would appreciate it.

Your SOL. Return them and you can get stock rotors from several vendors hear on the forum.

OP: If you do not mind spending a little more, I would recommend these. I have a set on my 07 and like them a lot. They are lite and last a long time. With these rotors I use the stock pads and Motul 600 RBF. http://shop.performanceafx.com/C6-Z51-Corvette_c15.htm

If you want to stay with the larger rotor just buy/find the Z51 abutments that mount the caliper to the spindle.
