You might want to do a search on this. Drilled and slotted is not the best for the buck.

check out iRotors good prices and they are made from brembo blanks. If you want some really great looking ones check out some Baer Eradispeeds. They look great but are pricey. best bang for the buck is probably brembo blanks from what i have read from Trackbird and mitchntx and the other knowledgable people around here.

I have the Wholesale Direct rotors and I'm very happy with them. They frequently run a special for which includes 4 rotors and 4 Axxis (metal masters) pads for $299 shipped. My rotors have been to 2 Road Course track days and are showing no signs of cracking or warping after the abuse.
