Option on Z06
Hello everybody,
I saw a few Z06 without Z07 pack, but they have ceramic carbons brakes, as this one : https://www.capitalchevroletnc.com/v...yn2d66h5603993 (does anyone know it?)
So is it an option that you could order outside of the pack?
Can you change the ceramic carbons rotors by normal ones?
Thanks for your help

So there would be no future cost..
Plus, the lack of brake dust is worth the cost alone.. lol!

Even if you do take the car to the track and decide to change to aftermarket less costly to service brakes you would keep the original brakes and reinstall when you sell the car.

OP, the CC rotors will last the life of the car under normal use and another bonus is that they don't produce any brake dust. Swapping them out will also de-value the car for resale purposes. Don't even think about doing it!

No reason to swap them out unless you are a hardcore dedicated track rat. For track use, it would be worth considering Giro brakes (more durable and cheaper to maintain) --- otherwise, go with the CCB's the car has on it and enjoy dust free operation for as long as you own the car.
BTW, I really do like those wheels!
