Default Help W/ Rotors

Hey guys i have recently been feeling alot of vibration and shaking when im stepping on my brakes at highway speed. my brother and my mechanic checked it out and told me i need new rotors. now i want to get those cross drilled rotors like i had in my old car. i came across these iRotors online and i wanted to know if they were any good, heres the link:

should i just buy those or go with the plain Brembo ones? or do you guys have any suggestions of which ones i should go with? my budget is low so i can not spend much. the help would be greatly appreciated guys thanks.

BTW i have a 99 GS4

dude, just go with the brembo blanks. They will be cheaper and perform the same if not better. Just get nice pads, Axis Ultimates <- my recomendation. ONly problem with the Utimates is that they wear quite fast. I drive hard, and get about 10k out of them. Not bad, but I like how they brake like crazy on regular brembo blanks. Plus you can always cut the blanks, it will be way harder if not impossible to cut the drilled or slotted ones.

Not to mention, cross-drilled/slotted rotors look funny on OEM 11.65" rotors. I would only do cross drilled/slotted if the rotors filled up the wheel area some more.
