Default Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotors

Was wondering if anyone has replaced their OEM rotors with a set of drilled or slotted rotors. I know Brembo make a complete set alittle $$$, I know Raybestos does too. I have seen a few on Ebay, but Im a little leary on the quality and the cheap prices. I am running Denali rims so I need to stick with stock size. I have a 2nd set of front and rear calipers that I going to have powder coated red, but would like a nice set of Hypo rotors to compliment the calipers.........Im a bit of a detail freak!!.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated

Run a search, but keep in mind that Wholesale is no longer a sponsor at this time.

I'm running slotted rotors. I went with EBC slotted and dimpled rotors up front and Powerslot rotors out back. I should have just gone Powerslot all the way around. I've also powder coated my calipers red. Check my webpage for pics.

Why would you rather have gone with powerslots all around? How are they holding up?

That aint no ****. Raybestos = paperwieght in my book. I went through 3 sets on my 97 Camaro in 40k. Went and got Performance Friction and they lasted the last 35k I had the car.

I have slotted rotors all around, got em from Praise Dyno, along with the pads. The whole deal's cryogenically treated...for what it's worth, truck stops on a dime.
