They should hopefully be available in a GM box sooner.

Hi All,
I ordered quite a few sets of these for my stock today. That doesn't mean that they're available, although I will be one of the first one's in line when these start coming out.
At first glance, we're looking at around 1695 + shipping or so for the rotors, pads and calipers.
I will let you guys know when I get them, trust me!

Any chance the calipers can mount to the stock caliper bracket and work with the stock size rotor? That's how I'd like to do it. I have no need or desire for bigger rotors or wheels, just better calipers.

1755, it might have been worth it to zinc or cadmium plate those rotors. I hope they don't rust like the Z51's. Do you know if they'll fit the stock C6 wheels?
