Biggest Brakes for the OER Ronal R15?

I've been searching and reading, but the more I read, the more I'm confused, so I have to ask. Does anyone know if the Corvette stock 17" will accept the C4HD brakes? I've read that the C4HD will fit the Corvette originals, or at least, I think they're posting about the Corvette originals,but my confusion is with the OER replicas. Does anyone know if they are the same?

Finally had the chance to mock up the 13" brakes on the Ronals. These are the Corvette 17" wheels.

They fit with about 1/4" to spare. Here are some pics.

Very nice!! I am going this route for sure. Did you got your setup from flynbye? I wonder if the rear 13'' pbr discs setup would fit to match those C4 HD's? Keep us updated on the breaking power improvement...

CTW Motorsports wheels with the same 13" sized rotor - about 1" to spare...

There can be huge differences in brake clearance between the same sized wheels!
