I prefer the F-Body upgrade... Dual pot aluminum calipers. Not that bad price wise either.

is there any way to fit those 12" rotors on the stock crosslace rims i know they say you cant. but thats never stopped me thats why my SE can out run a monte carlo SS  royaly pissed him off. would i be able to fit them if i put 1/2" spacers and longer studs on the front rotors?

Uhhh, first off your SE can outrun a Monte Carlo SS because it has the same 3800 motor as your car (assuming by mods list that your SE has a 3800 not a 3.1) and you have mods done.
And the reason we say you can't run 12" rotors with crosslace rims is because the simple fact that you can't. We wouldn't say something if we didn't mean it, but by all means go ahead and try.
Also Guz, did you get your rotors off of eBay? If so, link please?

i know im being stubborn but would the clearance issue be fixed by spacing the rim outwards or is it the ID of the rim stopping it

Sorry, it is not fit for your rim. If you want keep crosslace rim then I think it is no reason to put 12" rotor because this wheel didn't show rotor.
BUT......
Since you love your crosslace rims. I remember I read other 12" rotor thread (not this site) will work for 1992-1996 Pontiac Grand Prix crosslace wheel. I can't find this link at other site.

Thanks, I'm assuming the Impala's and Monte's have the same size rear rotors as us correct?
