Factory brake question
Hey Guys,
I was curious as to which brakes come stock on the 02 C5. Im pretty sure that they come stock drilled. I have the regular rotors currently.
Do vettes come stock with drilled rotors?

the C6Z and C6Z51 comes with ( for marketing purposes only ) Drilled and Slotted.
For any serieus braking you want solid side or small slot / j-hook slots not Drilled, Milled or cast in holes of any kind.

I have a 2000 C5 with drilled and slotted rotors all the way around. Does this mean I have non-GM rotors? The car also has red calipers that say Corvette and replica ZO6 wheels. I guess I just figured this is the way they came. The brakes will just about throw you through the windshield in a panic stop.
