A few zip ties would prolly be a good idea if planning on going considerably fast. I know all my push pins flop around a bunch and some of them have even fallen off just doing normal speeds.

Just had a set of Brake motive warp on me. Called them up and they replaced both fronts and pads as long as I covered shipping.

New oem rotors and hp+ pads. They squeal so doing it again I'd go with stock replacement pads. The hps pads suck. Less bite than stock and the same price.

On a previous car I used cheap aftermarket rotors and continuous problems with warping. Not doing it again especially on this car. The drilled or slotted rotors look great but I can't get over the added stress concentrations of them. Seems like it would take a real expensive set to be as strong as oe if even possible.

I've had d/s rotors and pads from "Brake Motive", an eBay vendor, since last summer. My car's a daily driver, including lots of winter driving up here in the Northern climates and salty conditions. I questioned whether the drill holes and slots would be a problem with the salt and extreme conditions, but they seem to have held up very nicely. Plenty of "spirited" runs around town and on the highways too.
