Karterdon, that is what rotors look like when they get wet. I washed the wheels prior to messing with it, and the rotors will get surface rust until you drive it a bit and the pads scuff it off. While new rotors would look better, after a few months they'll look just like the ones that are on there.

Bob the rust on the rotors have nothing to do with the problem you are experiencing. The big problem is that its a big hunking caliper and its gotta be finesed and shimed correctly. I cant beleive the caliper is not made to float!!! As to a rotor replacement I suggest the Baer Eradispeeds that are Zinc washed with Pced Aluminum Hats and stainless hardware. Now back to the fitment issue. Id talk to Jeffvette to see if he has any ideas. I cant believe nobody has "really" chimed in to help with hey Ive been there and I did this. If I had these I would be able to give you some pointers but curently I would be in the same boat as you im only running GS calipers. A lot of folks out there with some interesting combinations Brembo, Baers, Wildwood, Moveit and C5 setups come on folks give Bob a hand. Keep at it!! Can it be the brackets are angled incorrectly? Post some photos of WTF is going on maybe that might get the crew here to attempt to figure out waht is going on. Daryll
