I think that would be worth a call to them. I thought about upgrading to those rotors on my C6Z with Wilwoods but the high price kept me from doing so.

Hoping someone already has some experience, but I will find out one way or another.

There has been previous discussion regarding disatisfaction with Wilwood's recommended pad, but I believe the pad compound has changed.
