Default Brake Rotors

Wondering if anyone has Used or knows a good amount about the rotoworks brake rotors. the price seems really good wondering if there are any known problems with them I planned on onlly getting slotted so I dont have to worrya bout my cross drills cracking but any other problems let me know or a perfered rotor brand that everyone likes would be great.Thanks again guys!

neither slotted or cross drilled offer any benifits in braking, unless you consider going through brake pads like water a benifit. do yourself a favor and get a set of brembo blanks, (no slots, no cross drilling)its pretty much one of the best tried and true rotor brands. if you get the rotors zinc coated they will stay pretty good looking.

Just because they look cool, don't mean they work that well, I had a set of slotted rotors on all 4 corners of the TA, n they didn't work that well.. but they were cheap and looked cool....

unfortunatly brembo blank rotors are hard to come by, but they are worth the wait. if you do find a place that sells them, share the wealth!!
ps. dont get doo doo rotors, they will warp within days, if not hours!!!

Check out the sponsors.
Example: Sam Strano & Tire Rack are two that I know carry Brembo OEM blanks.
