Decided to trade wife's Pathfinder for this (2017 Ram 1500 Sport V8 4x4) so that I will be able to tow when I need it.

Installed the ZL1 1LE third brake light. It looks a lot better than tint option for sure



I've also test fitted the track wheels/tires in the car. It's a tight fit but should work if I need to carry them in the car

Cem, Were you able to fit the 325 in the rear or is that the 305 in the trunk? I take it you went through the back seat... If only I could leave the canopy, table and e85 and the girlfriend at home, I would be able to pull this off

I didn't try fitting the 325s. This is the Pirelli DH slick set that I plan to take it to track days and those are 295/305 on 19x10.5"/19x11" wheels. I have been using the NT01s for track days and driving around town

Glam, I tried a google search, no luck, but what is the thickness of the OE Gen 6 1LE front rotor? 32mm? I was thinking your DBA rotor upgrade may work with my ZL1 front 2 piece rotor on my Gen 5 1LE. I too am runing the ST43's and the cracks on my ZL1 2 piece rotors are growing. The Gen 5 ZL1 rotor specs in at 14.6" (371mm) and 1.26" thick (32mm). Thanks

I found this regarding to the front rotor sizes :

Quote:
Chevrolet Performance Brembo front brake system featuring six-piston monoblock aluminum calipers with performance brake pads and two-piece, 14.6" x 1.3" (370mm x 34mm) vented and slotted Duralife rotors (cast-iron braking rings with aluminum hats).
Those are also the rotor sizes of the C7 Z06 with a different hat design of course.

If I remember correctly, CTS-V, ATS-V, previous gen ZL1 and the new 1LE (and the new SS with 6 piston brembo upgrade) all use the same calipers and rotors/hats so it should most probably work just fine. Don't take my word though, you may want to cross reference the OEM part numbers and make sure those are the same size.

As far as I know, BOTH Gen5 and 6 rotors are 34mm thick. Going back to your question, DBAs should work since the hat interface is identical, as long as you use your own hats.

Actually, the story behind glamcem using these rotors is that we had the DBAs for my Corvette, and realized they should work for 5/6th gen Camaro, too, looking at the dimensions, and we let KNS Brakes know about it as well, once verified. C7 Z06, gen 5 ZL1, gen 6 1LE all use the same caliper, with minor differences.

You can add CTS-V to that also on the caliper crossover. Previous generation, not sure about the current.

Yeah, X25, surprise to see you pop in here, lol
Thanks fellas!
