There's a 13" kit that spohn makes. I don't think you'll get much bigger than that.

yeah i don't think that the c5s will work under the stock iroc rim. I've always heard and read it requires 17in or bigger. Go ls1 or 1le front and rear and you will be good to stop on a dime

Re: whats the biggest

Sorry fellas..I have 123 PMs in my inbox, I try to answer them according to date.

True C5s won't fit 16" Irocs, LS1s with C5 calipers will fit 16" wheels. The C4 HDs will fit 16"s, no problem. I also offer 3 Wilwood kits that will fit your wheels: (1) 12.2" setup and (2) 13" setups, one and two piece rotors.

Randy, PMs sent.

Ed
