Default 1988 Corvette 35th Anniversary Edition

I wanted to buy new rotors and pads for it but online it' asking if regular or heavy duty? It sounded like the 35th had the heavy duty but I'm not sure I want to buy the right stuff. Thanks

Thanks I'll check if it has the J55 which means heavy duty then right? What is the regular code in case it has that one?

This is mine, a Z52 suspension. Z52 had 12 inch rotors front and back was standard on the 35th. If you have J55 which has 13 inch front rotors and 12 inch back then you might have a unique C4.

I just checked and there's no J55 code so I guess I have standard so now I can buy a set of rotors and pads for a standard instead of heavy duty.

I bought AC Delco drilled and slotted rotors (made in China I found out) and mated with Hawk HPS brake pads.
