Oe rotors

Looking at one of the parts direct gm outlets and rock auto for rotors. The oe numbers are different. Would it be a rational assumption to believe the parts direct ones are actually oe where ra variants are not?
I’m feeling some wobble on those power stop rotors already, one year later.
Thinking of going back to oe. Wondering if anyone has got more than a year on oe and where’d you get em?

Excuse me, I got two years and 40k on those pinnacle power stops.
Another question is will the cop pads fit the non cop calipers and if so will they have more pad surface contact on the non cop rotors.

Cop pads are the same size. 1159 front/999 rear. Maybe semi-metallic (cop) vs ceramic (non-cop). Cop front rotors are larger (323mm vs 303mm). Front calipers are different too.
Are the rear rotors larger also?
I know the calipers have 17” on lt and ltz and 18” on ppv to accommodate those 323mm discs.

Rear rotors are the same. To swap over to police/taxi set-up, you need police front rotors/calipers. And, if iirc, 17" or 18" wheels for clearance.
Thank you for that Sheila 😊
Do you run oe or aftermarket rotors on yours?
What kind of mileage do you get from a front set of rotors?

Lol, I've got the original rotors on my '12/'13. They both have 70k+ mi. On the son's '16 Limited (150k+ mi), I replaced all 4 with a Detroit Axle set from Ebay Motors. When the '12/'13 need rotors, they'll get the cheapest (closeout) rotors from Rockauto. My mantra is cheap rotors/quality pads.
I appreciate your input..
Thanks
