Default Rotors&Pads-GXP

Hey guys,

Looking at getting a set of front rotors and pads for my dad's GXP. He wants to keep them drilled to match the originals out back that are still perfectly fine.

I told him to go with Hawk pads due to the fact that they're so sought after by everyone including the f body guys such as myself.

What' s the best place that sells both rotors and pads as a combo? Thanks guys!

Ok so the Impala rotors are identical to the the GXP rotors minus the drilled part? These will fit my GXP?

I always thought that the gxp's had corvette calipers. Anyways, can someone point me in the right direction for rotors? I think he's just going to order whatever tirerack has.

It's never a good thing to assume. Don't post just to post. It creates confusion.

Read this thread: http://www.clubgp.com/newforum/tm.asp?m=5168191

The rotors (Raybestos) in that thread are coated (say goodbye to that nasty visible rust).

Pads: Get the GM ceramics from monsterpartsonline.com

Front P/N: 19108021
Rear P/N: 19108022

Unless it's a 2008, the above numbers will work. If it's a 2008, you'll have to wait for someone else to chime in with numbers (I can't find the numbers at the moment).
