Got a set of 4 rotors in March for my 2009 Z51 from Kevin@partstaxi.com for $390 and change which includes ground FedEx to my neighbors front porch. Around 2PM she loaded up the two boxes in her kids wagon and wheeled them over to my place. FedEx delivered em around 0900 hrs.

Must cost extra to have them bring the actual boxes to my porch.

Yea, that is a good price, I bought mine form the auction site for $259 (plus shipping) with ceramic pads. I have bought from this Auction vendor before and I like their product. Might be a bit more here, but you are supporting a CF Vendor.

Cultrag (forum vendor) has them for about a $100 each. Make sure you get the correct rotors for the Z51 optional brakes.

Are your present rotors alrady out of spec as far as thickness is concerned. I change to ceramic pads at 50K miles, rotors were well within spec, and I just checked them again at 110K miles, and they are still in spec, and the pads are still well over 50% pad remaining. Check out Rock Auto, or Amazon, as they have the OEM rotors
89060328 - Z51 Front Rotors (OEM)
88909667 - Front Ceramic Pads (OEM)

89060329 - Z51 Rear Rotors (OEM)
889096668 - Rear Ceramic Pads (OEM)


New Thickness Front - 32 mm / 1.26 inches
Rotor Discard Thickness Front - 30.3 mm / 1.19 inches

New Thickness Rear - 26 mm / 1.02 inches
Rotor Discard Thickness Rear - 24.5 mm / 0.965 inches

The minimum thickness is stamped on the end of the rotors.
