Default Brake Rotor Questions

Looking for some brake rotor suppliers from those that have done it.
I am looking for a quality rotor, not drilled (slotted ok) that has a zinc or similar coating.Tired of looking at the old, rusty ones.
I have seen many front/rear combo packages on e-bay, but I have 13 inch front rotors and 87 (stock) rear rotors.
That screws up a package pruchase.
Anyhow, opinions and suppliers are appreciated.

I believe you can at least get the fronts (providing the 13" are 91-96) here:

unfortunately they don't have the early rears. I bought mine from them and they are what they state, good product and price.

Give a look at racepages.com too, they have free shipping. I usually get my rotors there.

Try Rockauto.com or Tire Rack. Rockauto has Centric rotors and TR has PowerSlot which are the same company and same part numbers. Also look at the Raybestos "Advanced Technology" rotors at Rockauto.

Do you have C5 front rotors or the J55 C4 13" rotors??

I have the J55. Wheels are open, so whatever I go with, I want them to match.

I got mine here Pete. They seem ok for what I paid for them. They had a spot on that auction site but don't know if they still do or not.

I bought their product back in 2004, they offer zinc coated and never had a problem with them.
