Brakes and Rotors question

This question is directed to my buddy Manny and all my friends here.

My Z51 C6 (2006) is coming up on 59K KM's. Brake pads are at 30% so brake service is in order. The questions are:

1. How long do the rotors last?
2. How much for a set of good (dustless) pads with install assuming that the rotors are retained.
3. Any thoughts on Hawk Ceramic brake pads from Corvette Central?

That pretty much covers it.

Thanks everyone

I bought ceramic pads for my c5... I burnt them with one track day... so if you intend to use them for the track, be careful... also they feel really hard under pedal (good or bad).

I understand rotors should be fine unless they have significant grooving worn in them from the pads.

(I'm new to this, but try to read a lot... there's a good write up on mods here: C5 Track Car \ HPDE Conversion: What I have learned! - Corvette Forum)
