Rotor recommendation please

Can anyone recommend a decent priced set of drilled slotted zinc dipped or chromed rotor? I just want something I don't have to paint that don't rust.

I have the Baer Eradispeed one piece rotors on mine. Not cheap, but I have been very pleased with them.

all you need are the c6 z51 caliper mounting brackets, and an 18" wheel up front. you will continue to reuse the OEM calipers.

i needed 4 caliper mounting brackets, 4 rotors and went with a new set of front and rear c5 z06 OEM pads. the cost was about $600 IIRC, all from gene@gmpartshouse.

it sounds expensive but the cost of the mounting brackets is a one-time affair and you may be able to reuse your stock pads, depending on their condition.

plus, i think the drill pattern of these rotors looks hot.

Not the best picture, but this is an Eradispeed

I bought them because the holes and slots are big enough to see them!

I paid the same for mine, I think it was autopartswarehouse. Anyway, I've had them for one driving season, they still look as good as new. No hint of rust or warp.
