You could try Hoppers Stoppers.  I have their DBA/PBR twin piston upgrade on the front of my car.

Otherwise if you want something a little more exotic try Cebco who are agents for Brembo and AP Racing.  I don't know if they have any Corvette specific packages though.

Want I meant was, "To go to bigger dia. rotors you need bigger wheels?"

I want to stick with my standard wheels for the moment.  I am looking at better rotors but I was under the impression I can't go to much bigger rotors without going to larger wheels?

TIPPA:
I'm sure there would be others who, unlike me, would definitely know, but assuming yours has the same wheels as mine i've heard what you have- our standard calipers fill our standard wheels with not much room to spare. i haven't measured them but am sure a quick comparison between the wheel inner dia and the distance from the axle/stub axle to the outermost part of the caliper will give you your clearance ;40

Yeah I'm sure but I thought I would ask just incase I missed out on something new.  If you read the article I posted the link to earlier you can see that the new calipers just fit with the new 12" rotors.




Keep any Ideas coming guys.  Thanks
