Default Breakmotive or Powerstop brake/rotor kit

I have a 00 z28 with 119k.

So its time to change out some things on it.

What would you guys go with ?

the break motive drilled & slotted rotors with brake pads package ?
or the power stop package ? the price is about a 60 buck difference.

I have read good reviews on both on line. I read the only draw back is break dust... Any vibration from either of these kits at certain speeds ? thanks.

I dont get any vibrations with brakemotive. The only drawback i can think of with brakemotive is that they are noticeably heavier than OEM. Im not sure how much the powerstop kit weighs, but it would be nice if someone can get actual numbers to compare them.

I've never heard of "break"motive before

The boxes that the Brakemotive rotors come in are labeled powerstop, so...

Only time I've had noticeable brake dust issues was when my caliper was sticking and grinding the pad away. Otherwise, the dust amount seems normal for a ceramic pad.
