Default What pads fit the Baer PBR 2-piston calipers?

So I upgraded to the 14" baer big brake kit a few years ago and am ready to replace the pads but am having a hell of a time finding the right pads to go on the vehicle. When I did it the guy threw some off brand pads on there that I want to replace with some name brand nice pads. So far after a few hours of googling it sounds like the PBR 2 piston calipers that come with this kit are the same as the 2005-whenever C5 Corvette calipers. In saying that I found pads for that car but will those fit?

If I am missing something obvious here (which I probably am) feel free to tell me how dumb I am but I am lost in space right now and hope someone can help me.

Thanks,
James

HFHB247N575
HFHB247Z575

from hawk at least but I heard Hawk pads tear up the eradispeed rotors so advice there is appreciated as well.

I can't answer your question directly but I do have a set of Carbotech bobcats from my C5 that I no longer need. I replaced the calipers a while back and still have the pads from the OEM brakes. If you want to send me a few bucks for shipping and hassle I'll put them in the mail to you. Send me a PM. If they do end up fitting, the Bobcat is an excellent street pad by the way.
