Looking to replace stock rotors / pads. - Best Bang for the money
Or better yet the best one that will stop my Mustang from banging someone
else. LOL

Premium Street Performance Rotors / dimpled / slotted rotors

1. DBA 4000 Series
2. EBC
3. Powerslot
4. Granatelli
5. KVR
6. Stop Tech

 

RotorPros Rotors. I got my Cross drilled/Slotted rotors from them for $270 shipped. You don't have to get the ones I got they sell rotors that are only cross drilled/slotted which ever you perfer.

Here's the link.

Probably Stoptech rotors with Hawk pads for best performance.

$173 each front
$157 each rear

 

Need some feedback on these since they seem pretty affordable and are similar to the EBC Rotors.

Also anyone want to chime in on what order you would place these in terms of quality / performance?

I would stay far away from cross drilled if you want to be hard on your brakes.. I have seen many many crack.

I have the GMS slotted & dimpled from LethalPerformance.com and they have been great with Hawk pads. Plus GMS has a cracking/warping lifetime warranty on them and they are priced right. Less then $300 for the fronts and rears.

 

Why do you want new rotors? The slots, dimples or cross-drillings are for looks, and in fact can decrease performance since you are losing rotor mass and surface area to contact the pad. Modern pads give off very little, if any, gas under braking. The slotted rotors do at least have the function of scraping your pad clean on every rotation--until the slots fill with brake dust and road grime...

Best bang for you buck are OEM takeoffs for $40 a pair from places like http://www.newtakeoff.com/.

If you want increased braking performance from the stock size rotors and stock calipers, get a set of upgraded pads, stainless brake lines, and then upgrade your brake fluid.

 

Good Info.....thanks

 

Leo, How do you like them now after use?????

I posted on brakes a couple of months ago. Let me know what you do and how your brakes hold up and I'll add to this. Also if there are any folks who have "open tracked" their cars, have keep you stock bits what did you do or did not do.
