Photos of Brembo drilled/slotted rotors
Just wondering if any has photos of the drilled/slotted rotors on their GS? I have a Cinnabar (red) '98 GS400 and was considered these rotors, mostly as a visual upgade. I have 18" Moda R6's (basic 5-spoke design) and you can see alot of the rotor through the wheel. I have done a search and read many posts (all the way back to 2001) but didn't find many photos. Thanks for any help.
Also, looks like Tire Rack has these for $203/pair front and $237/pair rear. Does this sound like a reasonable price?

Thanks for the reply Seize. But I'm just looking at the Brembo replacement rotors on the TireRack website. I assume these ones are same size as stock? As much as I would like the whole BBK upgrade that you've got, I have a few things I have to take care of first, like new tires. I was shopping for tires when I came across the Brembo rotors. Figured I might order these along with the tires. Just wondering if it's worth the $. As I said, it would be mostly a cosmetic mod as I don't plan on adding the bigger rotors, calipers, etc.

The brembo rotors on tire rack are direct stock replacement so they are same size. I recommend tire rack for the excellent customer service. I just ordered my rear CD brembo rotors from them and they are great. For the price you really cant go wrong

Looks like a good deal, just almost looks "too" good. Has anybody ordered from these folks before? Same package from TireRack is $440 plus shipping. Don't want to get scammed or buy some Brembo knockoffs.

I don't think there Brembo knock off...... I ordered mine from ebay...came in Brembo boxes and work great.
I've seen them advertise in magazines too...I don't think they are knock offs..I just think that Brembo offers a great bolt on application at a reasonable price....for folks like you and I ....you know...for looks.
It's definitley not the big bad boys...but for looks ..these are great. plus you can upgrade your pads and brake lines (ss) and have yourself some decent stopping power.

I just ordered the rears for mine as my fronts are still good and will be replaced with something larger soon. I paid around $240 for the rears and then ordered the EBC pads from a local store, So far they are great. I dont order anything from ebay anymore. I have never had problems but know too many people who have. The risk isnt worth it to me. Tire rack is really reputable
