Kato, I'd check on pad compound selection. My buddy Jim put the 15inch brembo kit on his new Z06 and has had problems getting pads for the front calipers in the right compounds.

Thanks, Mike. Will do. I'd be doing the 14"ers like a few other folks on here already have. I'm not planning on racing this car but I will be tracking it whenever I have time...

Pagids are not out "yet" for these rotors but the Performance Friction pads work fine.
