2010+ camaro ss brembo rotor question

I was doing my research on this brake upgrade and notice everyone uses the z06 14" rotor and not the Camaro 14.3" rotor, is it only because of the bolt pattern or is there another issue I'm not seeing? Couldn't I have my hub drilled for 5x120mm to match the rotor since I already run 5x120mm wheels? Lastly, should I rubn hubs or 1le hubs to best match my current wheel offset?

Camaro rotor is 14" not 14.3."

The Z06 rotor does not work as the annulus is not large enough for the pad height.

Stocks hubs will fit through the 5x120 holes in rotor. However I did make a few 5x120 hubs for our cars. It is nice for those running 5x120 wheels.

Drilling stock rotor/hubs will likely not work as there is typically stiffening ribs in that area.

You will need to run 1LE hubs to get enough space for the bracket.

Yes, further research shows you to be correct on the rotor size. Can you shoot me a pm regarding your 5x120mm 1LE hubs you produce? Thanks.
