Buy the Eradispeeds. They are not the cheapest, but you probably won't replace them as often, either. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

You might want to consider the JC Whitney cross drilled and slotted rotors ($65 ea). I have 12K+ miles and so far they have been fine.

I've never dealt with any JC Whitney parts. Are JC's products any good? Can i depend on the rotors w/o worrying about cracks after 10,000 miles?
Are JC rotors better than Autozone?

My Erads are sweet in every way.

Quiet, smooth and regardless what anyone says, they do stop better. And looks, there is no better.

I too want to see these JC whitney rotors where can I find them? I need rotors I have that so called wiggle when trying to stop the car. I really would like a cross drilled rotor, but slotted also is a plus. Anyone have any more info on these rotors?

It's a shame they don't have them for the rear too.
