Rear brakes with ATS fronts?
MY front brake upgrade plans include ATS calipers and the bigger rotors, but what do you suggest for the back that looks compatible, visually?

Re: Rear brakes with ATS fronts?
I found a very cool caliper on rock auto, p/n ac delco 1722503 that is under $200. It looks like a nice match for the ATS ones for the front... thoughts?

Only thing is is that caliper uses a 14.4 inch rotor. The Gen 6 camaro ss rear caliper is less $ and uses a 13.3 rotor, so it actually would be a closer match

You also don't really want a fixed rear caliper, since the axles have c clips there is some play in and out and this can cause pad knock back issues.
