The base C6 corvette uses the same front brake package as all the C5's. Rotors are the same, calipers are the same, abutments are the same, etc. If you are talking about the C6 Z06 (based on the rotor size you gave, you aren't), well that's another story. With the C6 Z06 brakes, you need at least an 18" wheel on the front.

That's what I'll have on the car in a couple weeks. The 17" wheels will clear it no problem.
