Any other recommendations on a rotor replacement brand? Looking for drilled and/or slotted (for looks). Opinions seem to be all over the place...

Rockauto.com they got 5-10% all the time. I got centric rotors for my 350 conversion. Stoptech uses centric blanks for their slotted rotors

I posted a while back about looking for some good rotors, and it seemed like there were only a couple companies that had rotors for our cars. Within those companies there weren't many options.
For example, Some companies only sell the gold zinc plated rotors, or some only sell drilled and slotted.
So...Thanks to one of the member's posts here, I was able to find the ultimate rotor company that has all of the options

I have to be missing something... I've seen a couple people talking about the OEM rotors/pads being overpriced, but they seem to be (way) cheaper than all the other options I've seen people mention.

You can get a full set of pads for about $90 and a full set of rotors, front and back, for $600 from Sewell (plus shipping and tax).

Hey guys , I need some help. A buddy of mine recently bought a set of rotors from http://www.lextasy.com/IS250-IS350-R...ED-DRILLED.htm but the set he got are bigger than his oem set. I tried to do some research on their site and the item doen'st say the size of it just that it will fit both the 350 and 250. Just want to know what you guys think so I can help him out.

I would think he got the 350 rotors because the 350 rotors are larger than the 250.

I am going to replace all my rotors with the Centric Premium. I also have a 99 RX300, I switch over to all centric rotors and akebono Pro-Act pads.....the braking on the RX is amazing. Based on results of that I will be replacing my IS250 with the same.
