Thanks for this answer. It was harder to find than I thought. Mine are cross drilled rotors and I have the F55 package. So to confirm, when I am looking for new brake rotors I should purchase those specified for the Z51 package?

My 2006 reads J55 H/D Brakes, FE3 H/D or Z06 Suspension and Z51 Sport Pkg on the build sheet.

I'll take a stab at this... One way to be sure is to measure the rotors. Autozone shows 2 sizes of front rotors.

The plain, undrilled ones measure 325mm or 12.79 inches and the drilled ones measure 339.9mm or 13.38 inches

Buy rotors that are sized like the ones you have

I guess it would be possible that the previous owner changed the rotors to an aftermarket but not too likely.
Pretty unreliable...Z51 are pre-2010 cars, and it is likely they have had the rotors replaced by now, most often with drilled ones.
