Default Rotor Suggestions???

Getting ready to get new rotors, but wanted to know what people have had good and bad luck with. I like the cross-drilled and slotted look, but are they worth the money? Do they last as long or have any problems? I looked at the ProStop dimpled/slotted but was curious what the difference was between dimpled and cross-drilled. Any information on new rotors will be greatly appreciated. Also, what pads match the rotors you are suggesting?

The dimples are done to get the cross-drilled look with out sacrificing the integrity of the rotor by actually drilling it.

Check out iRotors auctions on e-bay. They agreed to sell me front C-5 rotors, and rear Camaro rotors with the zinc coating for $280... which is a lot less than their web site.

FYI

I've seen Baer plain (not cross drilled, not slotted) rotors endure amazing workouts at Bondurant...just make sure you take your foot off the brake when you come to a complete stop after heavy braking...if you don't the temps on the rotor will skyrocket and any rotor can easily crack or warp that way
