What is the better brand that lasts and will not crack for a 02 trans am?

I am looking for a set of cross drilled and slotted rotors that are coated so that they sont look rusted within a few days.

Thanks for the help

In all honesty, all drilled rotors will eventually crack..

Frozen Rotors seem to be of the longer lasting sort that I have seen though..

IMO though, I would stick to slots only.. Especially if your going to be driving the car hard even semi-regularaly..

Try out Brakemotives stuff. For the price its worth a try, I bought a set to test out. If they take a dump I still spent less than replacing it with Wagnor blanks & I'll chalk it up to a learning experience. If they last though, they will prove a money saving alternative. So far I havent seen any negative feedback on them.

EBC rotors here. they are graphite coated. it's supposed to keep the hat from rusting up. The braking surface will rust on any iron or steel rotor.

i personally run only slotted rotors with 0 issues for the last 2.5 years.. I know they make slotted and "dimpled" rotors that offer the looks and strength..

Even the expensive Brembo drilled slotted rotors crack. If I were you I wouldn't worry about that part and worry more about the preventing rust coating. Either that or go with good blanks or slotted rotors.

Not sure who makes the WS6store rotors but I know the Brakemotive kit I got comes with Kenitic rotors made by Powerstop. And they came with performance pads.

I have the Brakemotive(powerstop) slotted only rotors. Theyve been on the car since last June I think. And it gets driven pretty aggresively a few times a month. So far, no warping, spotting or cracks. Im happy with them, especially for the price.

I bought a kit on eBay( I know, I know) that all rotors and pads for $170. That was over a year, and almost 18k miles ago. Zero issues so far. I got the kit after my buddy had the same kit on his 02 SS for about 6 months with no problems. Can't remember the company or brand name, but I would def buy them again.

I got the ebay rotors also, z06 up front and camaro in the rear for about $200. They rusted pretty quickly but I pulled them and painted the hubs, so far they are nice

I have never had a set of drilled and slotted rotors crack on me...ever, and I've driven everythgin from drag to autocross, never an issue. I dont know what people do to cause that to happen. or i may have just gotten really really lucky for the las 10+ years.
