Would most of the Z51 owners want a factory sized replacement, or would they want to up size the rotor and relocate the factory caliper?

The lead time is fairly long (75 days), so I will be ordering them soon.

Personally, Id prefer exact size replacement, using all OEM brackets, calipers, etc.

<-- Z51 owner

I would prefer a blank rotor face, but could live with the slotting. Is this going to be a one time deal, or are you going to become a forum vendor and continually offer them?

As soon as I have inventory, I will become a site sponsor and stock complete sets along with replacement rotor rings and hats. I will offer them as plain, slotted and drilled.

The bells will only come in a black hard anodized finish.

The Z51 has a very odd size rotor, so I am tooling this size up and will let everyone know when they are ready.

I do not have any pricing on the relocation brackets as of yet, however the front 14" rotor set will be $550.00. The stock size fronts are $500.00 a set.

When you have the brackets ready send me a PM and I'll take a pair of 14" fronts, drilled w/brackets.

Hardbar makes very nice 2 piece rotors. Last I heard they were still in Z06 sizes only, but they are a lot lighter than the OEMs. Something like a 12lb difference for just 1 front rotor. PM ghoffman for info, he's the owner.

Will these rotors be lighter than OEM Z-51 rotors? And if so, by how much?
