Then you are posting on the wrong thread. Nothing here will work with 13" rotors.

Also, wouldnt this kit be questionable in a race setup? I hope it is understood this is more of a street and bling setup than a reliable race setup.
GM only cast one rotor and it is used on both sides. Before the car came out it was supected that one side would run hot, but GM knows what they are doing. Both sides cool just fine even under race conditions.

Those that want a BBK know you have to have rims that clear. I don't need spacers, though most probably will. I'll add more info about that later on.

Where are you getting your information that this isn't a hardcore race setup? These calipers have proven themselves the world over under race conditions on numerous high performance vehicles. The OEM rotors are pretty much only raced with on vettes, but they have proven themselves to last there as well. Maybe your thinking of the 6 piston Vette calipers as not race ready.
