Caliper is stuck

Recommended Posts

I know. I checked 50 times when I put them on and couldn't find anything that was rubbing.. Plus they came off another C5 so that was also another indicator they fit.

 

I'm just a dumbass

 

maybe check on the wheel to see if theres some grinding mark to see which wheel is hitting and where.

 

 

Glad it wasent something busted, hope you get it figured out on the new wheels.

That's what I'm going to do. The wheels came off a base model C5. As far as I know, base model and Z06 brakes are the same other than being different colors.

Don't just look at the caliper. Remember that the suspension geometry changes with the car in the air. Put the wheel on that is giving you trouble set the car on the ground and thoroughly check it's clearances all around including the back side.

 

That is, if you can't determine the "grinding" point on the wheel you took off.
