There are bolt-on options out there. I wouldn't be comfortable using a DIY adaptor- no matter who made it. No offense, Dub.
The OE rotor diamter is abour 13.25", right?
I'm sure UB will chime in and tell us these are all crap but most of us don't have/want to spend $7K on brakes.

None taken. I wouldn't trust me either if I didn't know me hahahaha.
Though to be fair there are thousands or even millions of vehicles on the road that have parts on them with my name on the drawing. I also did suspension work for a Formula SAE team and sat in on some of the brake design there. I also spent a couple years part time in a machine shop.
If and when I get my car settled I may just take a look at doing some kind of brake kit like this.
Actually I ran that set before I put the big brakes on. The 4 piston calipers won't clear an SRT10 wheel so I used their 3 piston caliper instead. It's a very good kit, I actually plan to install it on my 14 here pretty soon. The stock brakes on this crew cab leave a lot to be desired but I don't intend to build an all out truck again so the SSBC stuff will do just fine.
Dub...if you decide you want some SRT10 rep wheels then hit me up. I've been thinking about running some R/T wheels while I search for some OEM SRT10's. We can work out a swap plus cash on my end....your wheels are obviously more valuable than my reps.
Is it the wheel offset that causes them not to clear the brakes? I had a similar problem with my mustang...
I may be interested in those wheels though. Shoot me some details. Email is [email protected]
