Default Has anyone used the ZO6 brakes?

Hi everyone! I was curious if anyone has used the c6 ZO6 brakes. They are 14" 6piston fronts and i beliebe 13.4" 4 pistons for the rear. The reason i am asking is i see everyone using Willwood brakes but no-one is using the c6 stuff even though there are tons of people doing C5 corvette swaps. The corvette brakes are cheaper than the willwood setups and they look like an equal setup. Thanks and any comments would be much appreciated.

Josh

So you have them on you camaro? Do you have any idea how far the stick out from the rotor face? I think my wheels would be able to accept them but I would like to know for sure before spending that kind of money. Thanks alot for you helps guys

This is the only reason I haven't ordered them for my GTO - I don't want to run 18s or 19s up front.

I have the z06 front and rear brakes that iam putting on my 79z its hard to find wheels that work but i went with the Forgeline WC3 wheels and they fit but close. if you use the kore3 template that will do the trick but if you use the kit that Tobin has the front center caps wont work due to the hub sticking out. But for the quality and customer service kore3 is great. and get the rear e-brake set-up nice piece
