Can we get a close up pic of just how much the front wheel sticks out with that spacer installed?

We need to ping Fred Beans and see what he can do for us on this setup...If he can get 06 Z06 shocks for half of 04 Z06 shocks- maybe these bad boys won't sting too bad when the price comes in...I would be all over a set!

Awesome! Looks like alot of C6 parts are fitting the C5. And from the looks of it C6 parts are cheaper.

Looks like a great deal for people wanting bigger brakes but not digging the $5,000+ Brembos, Willwoods, Baers, etc.

I sent Gene (From Fred Beans an email asking about the parts)
Here is his reply:
Right now they are unavailable.

I think if this C6 Z06 kit is cheapier than all of the other aftermarket kit's htey will be forced to cut their prices. It's a win-win for all of us!

Did you weigh any of the parts? I would like to know how much difference these are compared to C5s
