Are C4 front brakes 12" or 13"?

Can I use 13" rotors with a PBR that came with 12"?

Both the 88-96 vette with heavy duty brakes got 13" rotors, all the others got 12". Not sure about the rest I would guess that you could with the correct adapter bracket.

Stock C4 brakes were 12 inch. The 13 inch C4 Corvette PBR caliper is different than the 12 inch caliper as are the 13 inch rotors. I cannot remember if the caliper mounting bracket is different but I believe that they are also different.

If you find a set of C4 Corvette 13 inch calipers and they need rebuilt call Lonestar Caliper in Texas. They will rebuild them for about $30 each. Generally you will need to send them your cores however sometimes Kenny will have a set in stock that he will sell if you pay the core charge.

Kenny can also confirm if the caliper mounting bracket is the same.
