The site says "D347" brake pads and they look like the ones I have. My rotors are cast with "86730". Can anybody confirm the application I can use for sourcing the pads/rotors? I don't want to go through SSBC and pay premium money if parts house parts will do. Thanks!

The original SSBC is out of business There is purportedly a new company that bought the assets LINKY TO NEWSSBC WEBSITE They should be able to tell you the original application for the pads/ rotors. The rotor may be a "special" app though I believe Summit is still offering their kits so the may be able to help as well To answer your question the D347 when googled pops up in multiple locations.

I went ahead and ordered a new set of Bendix ceramic pads and had the rotors turned down 5 thousandths on each side to take of the grooves out. I am not a big fan of turning rotors but these are rear brakes and I am hoping the small amount taken off won't be an issue.

The rotor hats seem deeper on mine. Pads and calipers seem to be a match.

If you spend some time digging the are several forums that list purported sources of the rotor. However the general consensus appears to be that SSBC re-drilled the bolt pattern www.tandmautomotive-omaha.com

Hence the reason why they get the minimum thickness rate casted or stamped somewhere. You don't have to worry ( even less for that ammount ). Even less on a car is not a driver.
