Swapping base c5 brakes onto my c6z. Looking for pads/rotors. This is for a drag setup so lightest rotor is what I'm looking for. Which rotor is the lightest for a base c5 rear and a set of pads to go with it.

That will net you a pound or 2.
Or if you want to lose 5-6 pounds per rotor you can do a 2 piece rear but it deletes the parking brake and I have to get them made. (And they are $600+ / pair)
HP+ make a good pad choice. Lots of cold bite for hard stopping at speed.

Street car so I need a parking brake. Rather have something slotted to match the fronts but if you suggest napa/autozone/etc that is what I'll do.

I went and looked at them and want to stick with a vented or drilled rotor to match the fronts. Out of what you sell what do you recommend since I need to order pads anyways. Running Hawk HPS up front so I would assume same for rear.

They have drilled and slotted as well but I would stick w/ slotted.

On your website the "DBA 5000 Series Drilled and Slotted Rotor - Red Hat - Single Rotor" Under Corvette and clearance does not show RH or LH to designate. Are they directional?
