Which Rotors should I buy for the front???~!?!
Hello! I have a 2004 R53, I am going to be changing my front breaks and I know for a fact I need new rotors. Now I don't mind paying more $$ if it is worth it.
I was looking at these 3 and wondering if anyone had any reviews for these.

slots, dimples and drilled are all just bling for a street car
simple vented rotors are all you really need
your local auto part store probably has some
or these are fine: http://www.waymotorworks.com/wmw-bra...0-r53-r52.html
combine with a decent lower dust pad like EBC reds

Capt_bj is spot on. Had all four corners redone with OEM discs and EBC red from Way near 50K ago. Good stuff, can't go wrong. EBC was available at the local big box but not the rotors so I went with Way. Price wasn't an issue.
EBC makes good rotors, but they are pricey. For a street car you are better off just saving your money and going with some plain face like our WMW rotors. They are high carbon and durable while be cost effective.

We do a package with the EBC reds which we use in the shop on customer cars

1+ for the basic WMW rotors for street use.
But select the brake pads that suit your needs and budget. For those who track, those pads often are noisy and dust more than street friendly pads. If you don't like dirty wheels then take that into consideration.

We have some good front rotor options here: http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/...pg3.htm#item13
Zimmerman Coat Z (not the drilled ones) and Brembo are good brands. Let me know if you have any questions.

I found that centric high carbon rotors were great....
Their "premium" rotors are pretty darn good, and the high carbon is just better...for the $$ I seriously doubt you would regret getting them. While they are not a high $$ item, I know many folks that track centric rotors....they work, and they don't seem to warp or have other issues.
