Hey guys, I'll be changing the front rotors and pads of my 2010 SS TC with stock Brembo Calipers. The only thing is that I am a bit confused about parts numbers and fitments. I checked out plenty of sites and their fitment charts are completely different, even for the same part. It seems most rotors won't fit with the Brembo setup. Here are my questions, I'm from Montreal Canada, so if you know any canadian suppliers (Ontario, Quebec) let me know.
**I am a believer of the blank rotors/best pads theory**
1) I'm looking for blank front rotors. I was willing to buy on ebay but without the specific part number it gets confusing. Which blank rotors do you guys use? Durability?
2) I'm looking for the best pads possible, low noise, low dust, high durability, etc. I didnt like the Hawk HPS on my GTP, and they are way overpriced. I was looking for EBC GreenStuff or something similar. ZZP carry Evolution Z16 Power Stop pads for 35$...and all the reviews I red were great...what do you guys think?
Thanks in advance for your time!
I use my car as a daily driver all year long, i don't bring it on the track. I plan to midly mod it in the future (bolts on, tune, suspension)

ebc green stuff would be fatal on that car. I would suggest you go OEM Ferodo HP1000 pads for summer, or try Bendix metal masters for the winter; the bendix pads come with pins that are too short. Buy the oem pins from CED and use anti seize on them. Go TO crate engine depot for great service , advice fast shipping and decent prices, amazon for cheep cheep no advice. Good luck.

Cool, glad I went with the R1 route then. Ive read good reviews on the posi quiet as well. I got the Eline rotors which are a grade lower than the premium, but then again the only difference seems to be the zinc rust treatment. I'll paint the center hub with heat resistant primer and engine enamel.
