Default baer rotors

I have a 1999 camaro ls1 with some boltons. I just ogt my baer decelarotors installed and let me say... Night and day. Before at high speeds to a stop my brakes would fade alot!!! Now I could not feel any difference from 100 to zero and 25 to zero. Pedal was firm all the way down to 0 mph. I am satisfied!

are these the drilled and slotted ones? If so, I have had them for nearly 4 years, abusing them. Watch drilled holes for cracks, cause it might happen. After i save up enough for all new rotors i will stick with blanks or slotted. Otherwise i have enjoyed the Baer rotors over the years.

Did you change your pads too? That would probably make the largest difference.

I have the bear drilled slotted rotors and abuse them a lot and never had cracks on the holes. they look good and I will never change them. If it aint broke dont fix it.

I have the Eradispeed 2pc rotors on the front of my car, they been on there since 2000 and there are a few small cracks here and there. The rotors appear to be in good surface condition and feel great when stopping but that's a LONG time, maybe time for an upgrade?

Really you think this hairline stress crack is gonna make me fly off the road? I'm talking like this is the biggest one with MAYBE one smaller one on another hole. It's not like there's a crack across half the rotor. Anyways to the OP these rotors are great and well made but you do have to monitor them for things like this, I think 10yrs. is pretty dang good for any brand of rotor.

Im not bad mouthing Baer, ive used and abused my rotors over the past 4 years. I do however have more than a few hairline cracks around the holes but i dont fear them fully cracking. Brake pads will also cause more or less wear on the rotors too.

they have a 3 year warranty. My pads are about 3 months old, I turned my old rotors, they just faded too much on heavy decel.
