Who makes the best "bang for buck" rotors? after 17k miles my rotors are warped to hell and I dont see the sense in having them shaved only for it to happen again. Does anyone have any suggestions for a set of aftermarket rotors.

Re: Who makes the best "bang for buck" rotors? a company called Roto-Tech makes rotors. They only make the front ones though and they are cross drilled and slotted for 130 for the pair.

Re: Who makes the best "bang for buck" rotors? a company called Aimco makes replacement front rotors... they're made in the USA.. and autozone sells them for 39 dollars each
any rotor can warp.. you just need to make sure your lug nuts are properly torqued every now and then
i put 26k miles on my stock rotors.... that includes about 15 autocrosses... and they never warped...

Re: Who makes the best "bang for buck" rotors? Autozone rotors. Put a set on the front of my z, havent warped since then. A big part of warping is torquing the wheels down to 100 ft lbs on each lug nut. I have followed that practice and dont eve nahve the slightest shake from these rotors. Plus I got them and pads shipped for about 150..
