I don't know about the "c pads" you mentioned, but do recall the pads were Performance Friction, Z-Rated. I do not know if A/Z still carries the performance Friction Line. it's been several years ago.

Re: Here's a link that lists a lot of different rotors, Hawk & Performance Friction pads. The performance Friction-Z pads are still current.

The quality of the resurfacing is quite important - it's not a "corner store" operation usually. Equipment and the condition of the tooling are important. Having them Blanchard ground is I believe generally the preferred locally available method. Automotive machine shop that does flywheels also.

*** Don't forget your front rotors are "directional'!
