Rotor and pad suggestions

SociallyAwk · 11-23-2017, 09:31 PM

Neither R1 Concepts nor StopTech have both FRONT and rear D/S rotors. Only rears.
Can someone recommend a proper setup for me?

For reference, I was looking at Carbon Geomet rotors from R1. Something like that would be nice.

Oem work just fine and I wouldn't use r1 on a track car

I’m also looking for an upgrade like two piece front rotor for the 4 piston brembos

Got a 2017 zl1
Changed the pads for power stop z26, like the “no dust” immédiat effect!
Need to know what kind of rotor can match (front and rear) on a 2017 gen6 zl1.
Looking for drilled and slotted rotors
I don’t know the exact size (width and diameter) of the 6 brembo and 4 rear rotors of the 17’s ZL1?
If somebody already changed his rotors let us know please
Appreciate

I just installed power stop rotors and pads in the front and rear. I ordered them from rockauto.com. $320

You can check this company out. My neighbor ordered the premium cross drilled and slotted for his F150 Ecoboost and is very happy with them.

Compared to your first memories of the original brakes, how do they compare?

Initial bite?
Braking distance?
Dust buildup?
Light pedal noise?

Yep, I think we have the same sizes. I can't find rotors that are D/S for my 1LE for both front and rear.. Nearly impossible. I'll be going with Z26 pads though

I think they have fronts here for my needs. Rears confirmed but I need to call about the fronts since it shows the option but has no purchase button

I have the Evolution Sport series and they are better than OEM. Very smooth and quick stops. They also offer a track setup.

Smooth application
braking distance is no worse than the OEM, I haven't had to brake hard except during the brake in from 40MPH and that was very good breaking.
I have only had them for 4 days so I don't know about dust but they are ceramic so I expect little or no dust. I don't have any light pedal noise.

Has anyone have any experience with these?

Confirmed; Gilbert Castillo emailed me saying that there won't be front applications of R1 Concept Drilled & Slotted rotors for either e-Line or Carbon Geomet- for ZL1 or 1LE.

There is a thread in the 1LE forum that a user found the DBA series ring mates with our hats.

http://www.dbausa.com has a 4000/5000 series that are slotted and drilled.
