Thanks for the link. But its not working

Yeah, I see that. Sorry buddy... I think I missed ONE letter or number at the end of the link.

Anyway- Read this THREAD:
Here's what I did- and it turns out I should've just bought the PowerSlot or PowerStop's in the first place...the rotors I got looked nice when I FIRST got them, but they quality of them is def less.

I bought some other brand- b/c I liked the look of the slots better (they looked more 'high-end'...or like Stop-Tech's or Brembo's REAL-DEAL BBK's...

They are HORRIBLE compared to the rotors you got. (my dad put them on his Jeep- and they're not even getting orange or discolored where the PADS rub! They're STILL shiny silver...and have been for months...Crazy)

I found out AFTER I ordered and received mine- that I could opted to have them Zinc-coated for an extra $35. REALLY wish I knew that..instead I painted them with high-heat Brake paint and let my new $190+ EBC Redstuff pads take the paint off, where the pads rubbed.


BEFORE - 11.65" front rotors, with Floating, 2-piston calipers.


AFTER - 12.4" front rotors, with Fixed, 4-piston calipers!

Lastly, here's the link from eBay that I MEANT to send ya!

Although- the last set of [PowerSTOP rotors (which is made by the same company as PowerSLOTS, that you're getting) I bought were from Brakemotive. I'd strongly recommend them- Best Prices and AWESOME customer service as well. :)
They can be found here:
http://www.brakemotive.com/listings/...US/GS430/5503/

Can't beat the price - ALL FOUR with Ceramic pads for only a little over $160 SHIPPED.
***ONLY THING IS... they are PowerStop rotors and are both Cross-Drilled AND Slotted.

Honestly though- I've had both types before- and if anything, I actually like the PowerStop's MORE than just Slotted.

Hope this helped ya out a little... later

Thanks for the info guys. Looks like I'm going to go with an upgraded solid rotors for the rear all the vented ones for some dumb ass reason are drilled or slotted.
