Default C6 Z51 rear rotors fit C5 Rear with Bracket Change

A fellow forum member posted this thread in another section and I thought it may be of interest to some here looking for a little more rotor out back without breaking the bank. My next rotor change I will use the GM C6 Z51 caliper brackets with NAPA or other replacement rotors of C6 Z51 size.

They don't sell blanks in the C6 Z51 size. Only cross drilled or slotted

They = NAPA or anybody? I'll do some searching to see if oem being the only available option.

"they" means Drilled and slotted. Stay away from D&S when replacing rotors
