I have rotorpros on for a few days now and think that they are fine. I got the slotted/drilled ones as the price was right for them.

just got an e-mail back from RotorPro and DANG!!!! the price is even better than the Granetelli rotors and that is because they say they charge a little extra for black or gold, they said i could add brake pads for a price, but i wonder what kind of pads they sell

Hold on there guys. The pads that Rotorpro supplys with their rotors is not Hawk. They are Centric brand pads. They cost about $75 bucks. They are doing a good job with my Rotorpros. No complaints but they are not Hawk pads.

Just a quick note on the pads. As Scott said they are not hawk pads. They are a good set of pads and for the price you can't beat them. One thing that needs to be done is make sure you apply the antisqueel stuff on the back of them. It did not come with the pads. When I first installed them I got alot of noise. Once I put the blue stuff on the back no more noise. I love my Rotorpro rotors and pads!!

I just checked my e-mail from them and you do have the option of either the Posi Quiet pads for one price or the HPS pads for a bit more.

And I just ordered my rotors the other week, so I think that this is current.

I think I'm finally going to order a set of these, once I get out of the hospital. I'm going to go with the slotted only look. Even thought I have L/Ts and probably won't hear the noise the dimpled ones make, I just don't want ANY issues with cracking in the future, if I go with the slotted and drilled. I still may change my mind though.

Get well....

You are probably right in saying that you wont hear whatever you install.

i think i am going to go with Dimpled and slotted and go with their pads and upgrade to Hawk pads later or i might just buy the hawk pads, i think shipping would be to much from other companies unless TillmanSpeed and get me some for a good price

I asked them about pads and received this back:

Sure we offer awesome POSI QUIET pads manufactured by www.CENTRICPARTS.com or we can even get Hawk Performance pads.

OK... so I remember doing that, too. We usually used playing cards... I'd hate to think I destroyed a Mickey Mantle or Willie Mays baseball card. haha
