    Guys

    I want to take off the 10in stock rotors on my 04 GT and upgrade to a 12in slotted/drilled but will they fit under a stock 16in rim?
    I will also be upgrading my calipers while I got the wheels off but when I look at the clearance now, it looks tight.
    Thanks

    yes, theyll fit. you have two choices:

    1) stock 12" (11.9") upgrade that uses the stock calipers.

    2) f-body brakes.

    i dont think its really necessary, but a lot of people like them. i stopped well with the GM 12" upgrade. the GM upgrade is also at least 1/2 the price.

    Huh. Well that's good to know. I hit a pot hole the other day and cracked my 18" wheel bad enough I can't fix it. I'm buyin a set of 16" black with silver lip honeycomb wheels from a grand am. Will they still fit?

    Really? I read a couple of wheel websites that said after 99 the bolt pattern changed to 5x115. Not the case?

    Ahhh. Well I just looked it up again. It looks like my year gtp has a 5x100 bolt pattern. And the 98 and older grand ams have the same pattern. But in 99 they switched to a 5x115. That sound right?

    97+ Grand Prix's are all 5x115 bolt patterns. The Grand Am and the G6 are 5x100's.
