Default Break Rotors

Well it is offical I need new rotors I really am not looking for a performance upgrade but maybe a an upgrade in the look of the stock rotor. So I stopped by Www.Modacar.com and I was looking at the Rotora Replacement Rotors. I was just wondering what people though about them compared to stock and what pads to run with them.

Incase you or anybody here doesn't know, ebay rotors are cheap quality. Especially those "slotted" or "cross-drilled" rotors for $100

Yeah I know but I have heard of them cracking after a couple of days. Plus I am not a huge fan of cross drilled. But thanks for the input.

So looking at the title, you are braking your break rotors? Hehe.

Stock replacements are one of the best options.

Or if you want a rotor for asthetics try dimpled or slotted rotors. Give these guys a try. They are well known for their rotor and pad combos.

I checked them out but to be perfectly honest I am looking for a slotted rotor or pain rotor. I was really searching for inf on the Rotora front and rear but I am open to suggestions so thank you for your input

OMG you'd think S2K owners would at least know how to spell! I can see this on the ricer forums but c'mon > You sir are not worthy.

Then how about some correct grammar? Judge not...


I like Autozone Duralast Blanks. ~$68 No one's going to look at your brakes, anyway.
