Brakes
 

I bought my rotors and ceramic pads at Auto Zone and the total was $400.00 to do front and rear. I don't remember the individual prices but the rotors look and perform like the OEM parts that I removed.

What do you consider breaking the bank? Can get factory drilled rotors for $750/4.

Or check out forum vendor KNSbrakes for aftermarket options. Myself I went with DBA T3 4000/5000 but they have high grade cheaper options.

Check out Powerstop brand brakes, they have a nice Z26 street warrior upgrade pad/rotor kit for the front & rear that won't break the bank. Rock Auto, Pepboys, Amazon, Jegs, Summit etc carry them

rockauto.com you can get Delco drilled rotors for under $250 for all 4.

FYI, if they're drilled then you need Z51 rotors & pads... ensure that you get them priced for the larger rotors, DBA is great, quoted me $500 for replacement rotors for mine.

rockauto is usually my first choice.

However, if you have an Advanced Auto Parts store near you, you can usually google a coupon code that allows you to order online and pick up in store almost immediately and you save 25-30% it used to be 30% all the time, but now it's typically 25%. with that kind of discount, you can usually complete closer with rockauto but don't have to wait for shipping.

there is a limit of $50 discount max per purchase, but you can can do more than one order if you are over teh $50 savings limit.

looks like they have a few different ones to choose from.

check these out...

Look inside your glove box on the left side. There is a sticker (easy to miss but it is there). That sticker has all off the option codes on your car.
If you see Z51 on the sticker, you have that option on your car

:iagree:

Isn't the F55 indicative of Z51 size brakes?

power stop package 4 drilled and slotted rotors and pads regular price $666.00. On amazon 399.99. $ 200.00 to install including state inspection.

There are no "Z51" rotors. There are drilled J55 rotors that are part of the Z51 option package "05-'09 and part of the F55 option package '07-'13 and as a stand-alone option '05-'13 on any base C6. GM also refers to them sometimes as Heavy Duty brakes. The standard brakes are JL9 and those rotors are not drilled.

The front calipers are identical for all base C6 cars, but the rears on J55 brakes have a smaller piston than the JL9 brakes. It's not enough in most driving to notice any difference if you used the wrong one, but might in a panic stop. The brackets that hold the calipers are larger on the J55 brakes than the JL9 brakes.

farmington the 4 drilled rotors from Delco for $250. will not be the 4 rotors that come on the J55 heavy duty brake cars but they will fit

StopTech or Powerstop will both treat you well without breaking the bank.
