I went looking through old posts and i'm looking for any NEW info on replacement rotors for my 12.? rotors on the front of the 87. The ones i have are getting stress cracks from open track days and i'd like to find some replacements if they are available. the ones that Baer sells are $177 each and they are made in china.....maybe they didn't used to be, but they are now....are there stock corvette replacement ones with the same thickness...or am i stuck buying the baer ones. thanks pat

Perhaps you can find a similar disk from one of the circle track companies like Coleman. What is the thickness and mounting style of your rotors?

Is this a 1 or 2 pc rotor? If its 2 pc, measue the diameter thickness and hat bolt pattern and order the friction rings from.where ever. If its a 1pc, I really doubt baer makes their own rotors and they may be c4 vette parts

this is a one peice rotor ...i was hoping somebody would say- yeah just go to NAPA and get some c-4 rotors....i might go buy one and give it a try- they would take it back if it didn't work, i buy allot of stuff there....was hoping somebody had already tried this exercise!

Ah, I assumed a two piece. So take some measurements and I'm sure we can figure it out.

Diameter?
Friction disc thickness?
Total height?

C4 rotors are only 0.81" thick. I doubt Baer uses those. And C4HD rotors are 13" diameter.

sounds like i'm goofed up already for the c4's....but i'll try to get some measurements this weekend. thanks pat

I assume you have Baer's track kit? They use the C4HD rotors turned down to 12in. I used to run that kit, it was kind of a pain finding someone to turn the rotors down every time.

Depending on what wheels you run you could get different brackets and run them at the full 13in.

Hope that helps.

i don't know if this is the track kit or i think it may be the next one down. i remeber the rotors were 12.??inches....probably i'll just suck it up and go see baer....

I have a few sets of C4 HD rotors laying around. Why don't you measure you rotor thickness and total height. Then we'll be able to tell for sure.

I would guess that they are the c4hd rotors cut down to 12 in. You could order them from autozone and then have a shop cut them down for you.
