Are you Stock or Akebono?

That plays a lot on pricing ... Akebono will always be more costly...

Im on StopTech with Stoptech pads with Akebono... lil costly but worth it!

Here you go~I got mine back in Feb. but my car got smashed into and finally got around to putting them on a couple weeks ago. With the Stoptech Pads it's been a good setup for the short time I've ran them.

You could buy some on eBay really cheap. However do you really want cheap to be your determining factor when you're talking about your brakes? Just like wheels and tires, cheap should never enter the discussion when considering something so critical to your safety every day. Cheap drilled rotors will crack around the holes. Save some money and then look for the best drilled or slotted rotors you can find.

so is there a concensus that brakeperformance.com is the least expensive site for decent stock size xdrill/slotted rotors?

i realize that, ideally, cheap shouldn't be a consideration for performance parts, but i bought RTP rotors for my maxima at $90 an axle and they were outstanding. i beat the hell out of them and no cracks, no warping, no problems.

thanks for the input.

There's rotor/pad sets on Ebay that are drilled/slotted for quite a bit less but haven't seen a lot of positive reviews. The reason I chose the brakeperformance.com set was the reviews they got on a Corvette Forum were overwhelmingly positive regarding rotor longevity and no warping issues. The only nagging negative review was the "house brand" pads that come w/ their package deals, that they were noisy. I'd stick to a reputable brand name pad w/ these rotors.
