Fitment & Compatibility
This rear conversion is for 1997–2004 Chevrolet Corvette C5, including the listed Z06 applications. The supplied SRP rotors use the specified original-size brake envelope. Wilwood has checked these calipers with Z06 wheels; that wheel-clearance statement does not make a C6 Z06 brake package compatible. Other factory and aftermarket wheels require the drawing check, and some applications may need spacers. Route the supplied flexlines clear of steering, suspension and rotating parts. Use the fitment table below to confirm the individual model, year, submodel and brake-option restrictions.
