Default Ferodo DS2500 Brake Pads for C7 Z51

I have a brand new set (still in the box) of Ferodo DS2500 brake pads for a C7 Z51. I no longer have the car, so I won't be using them.

For those who haven't tried them, they work great on the street, a little better than OEM pads on the track, and last a bit longer (about 25% from my experience) then the OEM pads.

I'm asking $200 for the set and I'd prefer if someone was able to pick them up in person (I'm in northern NJ). The original cost of them was just over $400, so its a good deal.

I’ll take them. Currently in Europe live in Philly. I would like you to ship them though. These are front and backs I assume.

Regards, Jan

Still available. Previous poster wanted dedicated track pads, these are not.

Hi Jay
Do you know if your Corvette was built before March '14, because there was a brake redesign and I want to be sure if they would fit my car.

Best regards

I don't think that affected brake pads, but mine was a 2015 built in Sept of 14. When I ordered the pads I just specified them as being for a 2015 Z51.

I think 911 is referring to a rotor re-design from 2-piece to 1-piece. However, each rotor design is the same size and does not affect brake calipers or pads. These pads will fit any Z51 from any model year '14-'19.

Just because the GM part numbers changed doesn't mean the size or design changed. The calipers did not change, so they'll fit.

Think about it, hundreds of 14 owners have changed pads to aftermarket, and there's only one part # listed for all Z51s regardless of the brand.

GM Changes part numbers all the time as they update minor things, doesn't means they change the specs or anything you notice. Sometimes its just because they change something in the manufacturing process or supplier and the part itself is exactly the same.

Still have these if anyone needs a good set of street pads.
