If we're talking about rear disks, then 13s should fit over them no problem. Is it worth it? For stopping power, the general concensus is no. For bling and/or ease of changing pads, then it's a personal decision.

i'd rather do 5 entire rear disc conversions than change rear drums ONCE.....

so for me, yes it's worth it

stock 13's willl work, and personal preferance wheather its worth it to do it, i like 4 wheel disc better, easier to change andi thinkthey stop better you dont have to adjust them all the time like drum brakes

i did this swap and they do fit. it is well worth it. i did the 1 inch master cylinder and teg booster swap as well. just have to change the line fitting for one brake line to the 4040 valve with the 1 inch mc.. but well worth it. and easy as hell.. use si ebrake cables.. the teg ones work (its what i got) but are a little long and you have to crank the ebrake adjuster as much as possible...

I just did the rear disc swap today on my car. I found very little diffrence in breaking power.

My buddy stupidslowrsx said I have to get the 4040 prop valve to feel the diffrence.
