Z51 brake pads??

I have a 2006 Z51. Are the brake pads for the Z51 the same size as the non Z51 pads?
I am looking at getting ceramic pad. Who should I go with? Approx. price?

Rotors are different but I believe the pads are the same.

Pads are all interchangeable between C5, C6 and C6Z51.

I can sell hawk ceramics for $180 shipped, or you can get GM ceramics from gmpartshouse.com for just over $100.

The composition of the Z51 pads are different, but they are exactly the same size as the non Z51 pads.

Anyone try using C5 Z06 pads on their C6? I have an aftermarket setup on my non-z51 C6 with larger rotors and Hawk pads but it doesn't have the initial bite of my 04'Z06. Maybe the 04'Z pads would make a difference.
