Default New rotors...

I just picked up some J55 calipers and brackets to put on my 94 vert. The car is just a cruiser but I have never liked how the brakes felt. They've never felt what I would call responsive. Hopefully adding these J55s will give me the feel I'm looking for. I didn't see any rotors on Rock Auto that really impressed me. I don't need drilled or slotted but I want something nice and preferably something that won't rust up in a month. Any recommendations?

Doesnt Centric offer the high carbon rotors for the J55 brakes?

I have always had good luck with the Napa Premium rotors. I've tried all the house brands and tried several more internet brands and Napa is the only ones that haven't warped on me. May want to give those a look.
