Title: 4.75 lug rotors?
Post by: the dan on December 15, 2007, 12:11:10 pm
is there anyway to make the front 4.75 instead of 5"? without using lug converters because that will push the rim out to my fender? i assume you would have to buy new rotors but who sells them if anyone does?

reason asking is i have a good line on a set of Z06 wheels

that or what does everyone else do for wheels?

Most people buy rims with the proper wheel spacing.  I am sure you could problably get the rotors redrilled, but it would be a pain everytime you needed new rotors.  The Z06 wheels have some SERIOUS backspacing, so a spacer isn't going to push them out enough to make a difference..  Front 9.5 wides have about 7" and the 10" rears have about 8"...  Compared to the truck 4", that is a serious difference..
