The RT56 rotors came with the bike. The groupset is GRX800, though I'm pretty sure the brake calipers are actually GRX400. Shimano's GRX product page does say that RT64 rotors are recommended for the GRX400 caliper. They recommend MT-800 (XT) for the GRX800 caliper. The pad recommendations for both are the same (L03A-Resin or K03S-Resin) so I'm not sure what difference it would make. I'm running the L30A Resin pads (the ones with the fins).
