Hey Bob,

I've mostly got this figured out and believe I know everything required and the how to's. Actually I believe it can be accomplished with your style and that was my intention. Is yours with you? I don't believe the later wheel is needed and the later wheel isn't maybe that desired. To be practical if you used the late wheel the adapter would use 14mm wheel studs to mate to the spare. Everything would be a great fit.

All I need is the wheel to put to a car with the Z06 brakes with some washers to confirm the thickness of a spacer to do the fit. I believe it needs 30mm. I've seen the early one used on a CTS-V '11MY and I thought those calipers were equal to or greater than the mass of the Z06. There would need to be NO modifications to your wheel to do the fit test. Cut and dried I believe. In your post you seem to confirm the mass of the caliper.

I'll drop you an email. How many cars are in the vicinity with the C6Z06 calipers? Your wheel, a car and 40 minutes would confirm my thoughts.
