2011 brake pad size
 
Do the 2010 and 2011 both have the same size brake pad sizes?

I know the V6 has different sizes than the V8. So does the 2010 4.8 have the same size as the 2011 50i? I'm asking because I always swap out the OEM pads for dustless and there aren't any listing for 2011 pads yet.

When I call the dealers they all tell me no but that's because they are going off of part numbers and they would obviously be different.

Thanks..

Why would they obviously be different?

Because a 2010 will have a different part number than an 11 even if it's the same part, year specific as per the dealers parts guy.

So, can someone confirm the brake pads being the same in the 10 and 11?

Your parts guy is completely wrong on that, or you misunderstood him. A part has a part number, and that part number is the same regardless of which model or year it is used on. If the part number is different, the pad is different in some way, either size, material, etc.

For example:
