Yes The rotors will fit
But you will need the z51 brackets for your calipers and new pads (They are larger)

Fred Beans has the entire kit for something like $460 or $480 (not sure exactly). I plan to do this as well in a couple of months.

Oops, just read what he said again - you do not need new pads, and they are not part of the "kit" that Beans sells at that price.

You will not need the pads. They are the same.
