Front Disks: 5 x 4.75" or 5 x 5"
I noticed the CPP front disk conversion has 5 lug rotors with the car 4.75" bolt circle and the ECE (and others) kits have 5 on 5".
Do the CPP kits have the big 12", 1 1/4" thick rotors? Are they using car rotors or truck pieces? The ECE catalog has a line about truck rotors using larger bearings than car stuff and maybe braking performance not being what it should be if using car components. I can't decide whether to try for a 5 on 4.75" conversion or the more common 5 on 5. The 4.75" kit would be much easier for me with wheels as I have stuff from my Camaro i could use; plus the choice would be greater. Maybe someone who has CPP stuff could chip in on the rotor sizes and bolt pattern? Andy |

What are You doing about the rear?If You go with a 5x4.75 on the front,I would think You would do the same for the rear.

Whichever 5 lug conversion I do in the front, I will also do in the rear. I just want to get feedback on whether people are preferring 5 on 5 or 5 on 4.75.
