Z06 brakes

Is it worth the money to upgrade to Z06 brakes?

If you are talking about C5 ZO6 brakes no. They are the same as regular C5 brakes only red.

They do use different pads, they stop better and dust much more.

If you want upgraded brakes, put on a set of HAWK HPS brake pads, they stop better than ZO6 pads and dust less than regular pads.

Nope. Neither stop better than stock. Any of the above will activate the anti lock braking system...........that is all. All provide maximum braking.

Paint your Calipers and have fun doing it!
Wait about 10 minutes after painting and use an Exact-o knife to remove the paint on the letters...Looks great.
