Oh no. Camaros have a 5x120 bolt pattern, the impala is 5x115 which is the correct size for the alero, the camaro rotors will not fit on the hub.
Along with the center bore, it matches the alero as the camaro rotors do not. |

Those rotors are probably drilled for both patterns, if it's an aftermarket performance rotor. It's not super common, but does happen with some high performance brake kits. |

Yeah, I was looking at the POWER STOP AR8255XPR rotors. Though the specs/pictures don't show anything about multiple bolt patterns. Type Vented Diameter (mm)303.00 Diameter (in)11.92 Height (mm)51.80 Height (in)2.04 Nominal Thickness (mm)32.30 Nominal Thickness (in)1.27 Minimum Thickness(mm)30.80 Minimum Thickness (in)1.21 Hub Hole Diameter(mm)70.70 Hub Hole Diameter (in)2.78 Stud / Stud Hole Size0.64 Studs 5 Bolt Circle (mm)115.00 Bolt Circle (in)4.53 |
So I ended up ordering a "one-click" PowerStop brake kit, rotors/pads, for a 2002 Camaro and as far as I can tell the rotors will fit just fine. (I took a tire off and tested that they fit over the lug bolts and hub, so it should be good unless the hub gets larger past the existing rotor.) Though I won't know for sure until the end of next week when my mechanic gets around to install the parts. (And the other caliper has yet to arrive.)

Good luck

Hmm interesting
|
Those look like some generous bolt holes, so my guess is it's drilled out to fit both. So I'm assuming they must both have the same hub diameter, if this does work out so well.
|
So my Camaro brake upgrade, calipers/rotors/pads, got installed today with no problem. (Other than he mentioned that the left caliper was a pain to get positioned such that the anti-rattle clip/spring didn't rub, but the last person that worked on the brakes mentioned the same thing with stock Alero brakes.)
So it seems much easier to just order parts for a 99-02 Camaro and be done. (At least the aftermarket ones, maybe the actual GM rotors differ.) |
Thats weird. Because I know camaros bolt pattern is 5x120. If they matched our bolt pattern. There would be way better wheels for the car..
|
I have to guess it is just of matter of how much slop you can have in the bolt holes for the rotors vs. the wheels. (But there is no more slop with these Camaro/Impala rotors than there were in the stock Alero rotors it had on.)
|
Well.. So be it!
|
I found with my setup I needed to order a hardware kit for F-body and Corvette breaks to get the right combination of anti rattle clips but I'm assuming that's cause I'm running the C5 calipers with my setup
|
^^ Hope you have at least 17 inch wheels then. You cannot run 16 inch wheels with the Corvette Calipers. The Camaro Calipers are very close :eek:

He had a set of stock rims on his ga and they clear!

:coolio: extremely close but they clear ![]() I think these factory 16s are the ones that don't fit due to that plastic chrome cover thing |
Okay.
The GP wheels have a different offset. It was rumored that you needed those 16" wheels to clear the Camaro calipers too. |
The stock 16' GLS wheels fit and clear. I have 1995 Monte Carlo 16's on mine and those clear just fine as well. The only issue with clearance is those little raised heat dissipation fins on the top of the caliper, so if they rub or are just too close for comfort you can grind them down easily. I never had to, though.

Mike long time no see!

I never paid attention to the wheels that came with my free car when I ordered brakes for it, they looked like boring aluminum 15's, but turned out to be 16's from a mid 90's Grand Prix and might have actually been able to clear the Camaro calipers and Impala rotors...
I'm sure the new stock stuff is better than worn out rusty brakes though. Once that stuff wears out, I'll replace them properly with all this info :D |
