I have read here that OEM C5Z pads and Hawk HPS pads are very comparable in braking performance. HPS have the edge in a lesser amount of less corrosive dust.
I have a set of 75 mile scrubbed(basically new)OEM C5Z F/R pads out in my shop. I can measure their thickness if need be. No idea on friction coef, but suspect it is very similar to HPS.
My advice, get HAWK HPS pads, you won't be sorry. Less dust and more stop.

I'm not interested in the HAWK pads, hence the OEM pads questions.
I'll try the Z06 section as well. Since there is a bunch of different OEM and/or ACDelco part numbers available, if anybody know the correct numbers for the OEM C5Z06 pads that would be great.
