SS 1LE Rotors
My 1LE rotors will not make it through another season safely.
1. Is there a difference between AC Delco and the GM Performance parts. Each MFR has a different part # for the front rotors. 2. I am looking at Both Front Rotors: for the best price: - Rock auto $800 to my door - Your Suggestion? Thank you kindly, ~ Sean :mad0259: |
Do a search for DBA rings - at least one person has installed these. I intend to see about these when the time comes.

The AC Delco and OEM Chevy stuff is the same.
DBA and Giro-Disc has ring options. Do a quick search and you'll find a decent amount on this topic. Or just head over to KNS Break and look around. |
To add what the previous fellas said.....
The GM/Brembo 2 piece rotor that came on the Gen5 2012-2015 ZL1 has the same ring specs as the Gen6 SS 1LE GM/Brembo rotor but the hat is different. Since the Gen5 ZL1 rotor is cheaper, has both a left and right ring, is a good as the Gen6 rotor, why not buy this and swap out your Gen6 hat and install onto the Gen5 ring? Gen6 rotors, #177-1193/177-1194, Rockauto price $745/pair Gen5 rotors, #177-1145/177-1146, Rockauto price $595/pair Or, Brembo now has their own part # on the Gen5 ZL1 2 piece rotors. They look identical to the rotors that they source for GM: #09A66513/09A66523, Rockauto price $337/pair I have a set of these Brembos on the shelf for future use on my Gen5 SS 1LE with the 6 pistons. They look identical to the GM sourced 177-1145/177-1146 Brembos currently on my car. If I had a Gen6 SS 1LE I would have no reservations about swapping hats. I have run the same C7 ZO6/GS DBA rings that BobT and Mountain mentioned. The DBA part #s are: 52770.1LS 52770.1RS glamcem did the initial work on the Gen6 fitment As mentioned I used the DBA on my Gen5, and they are an excellent ring. https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=492428 |
I’m running DBA rotors with g-loc pads. Love the combo!

Damn those Brembos are cheap! There goes the justification of way cheaper brake rotors for my C6Z :pout: |

So, to be clear if I get the #09A66513/09A66523 Rockauto price $337/pair brembo part # units I just need to switch my current hats over? Could I use the nuts and bolts that come on the new unit or should I buy new?

Yes, just swap your hats over to the Brembos. Go to the link in my post #4 for more info. I've reused everything but the nuts. When I did the DBA rings, DBA supplied new nuts. Ken @ KNS Brakes also has new nuts. |
Honestly, I think I would source the correct high strength flanged locking nut and use high temp/high strength thread locker.
|
Thanks cdb95z28
|
I reused all the new hardware from the CTS-V rotors when I did mine with no issues
|
That's awesome, huge savings!

Dba works great
