The calipers are also interchangeable between the C5 (inc C5 Z06) and the base C6, but the C6 are said to flex less and provide better, more even pad wear, resulting in better braking.Ī couple of great cost effective ways to get great brakes on a C6: 6" larger while the rears are 1" larger and switching over to the Z51 set up requires the use a different bracket that you can get direct from chevy.Īlso note that stock 12.8" front rotors are the same size for the C5 (inc C5 Z06) and base C6, but the C6 factory rotor was redesigned and will hold up better, at the cost of being 2 pounds heavier. The difference between base and Z51 brakes are the rotors and the brackets.
