C7 Z06 Corvette front brake rotor replacement, and saving some money doing it.

C7 Z06 Corvette front brake rotor replacement.
How to save money replacing the front brake rotors of the C7 Z06, I purchased a pair of OEM Brake rotors off amazon for roughly $365.00ea to swap on to the car and since the warped rotors only have 10k miles I’ll send them to be resurfaced and keep rotating them as I start to feel the thump in the brake pedal. Resurfacing is roughly $100ea while new OEM’s cost roughly $500ea and the Amazon Rotors are $365.00ea.

I would make sure your machine shop measure to make sure it doesn’t fall below the min thk stamped on the rotor after the resurfacing. That is a safety factor for the rotors

Very good recommendation thank you.

Nice work but these same rotors in 2023 on amazon are$581 each

[@JWsGarage]

Yes sir the price has come down a lot.

Do you think buying a good aftermarket set of rotors would be worth the extra money so that you can cut out the extra labor and cost to swap out old rotors and machine them?

[@JWsGarage]

I haven’t tried an aftermarket yet to give you some honest feedback. But if I were to do that which I may I’d look for Brembo, Bear, or maybe EBC as an aftermarket alternative. Far as worth it money wise I think we all have different ideas of cost and expense. Myself when it comes to brakes and tires I don’t skimp.

@@JWsGarage I heard and seen some good things about DBA brakes, specifically their 5000 series 2 piece rotors, im not 100% about C7 but for C6 Z06 the rotors go for $450 a front rotor and the outer brake ring can be replaced at around $300
