Default Girodisc Conversion

I have a 2017 C7Z with the carbon ceramic brakes and I just got the girodisc conversion rotors for front and rear.

Does anyone know the Hawk brakes part number for them?

Rear: HB453G.585 or HB910G.590
Front: HB649B.605

This is what I’ve seen online but I just want to make sure.

Here’s a simpler way to find pads:
front pad size is the same as any other z06 or grand sport front brakes

rear pad size is the same as any base c7 or c7 z51 FRONT pads

also note that the rear pads virtually don’t wear. You’ll run the same pads forever. And if you’re tracking, make sure to use rear pads a little less aggressive than front.
