Default Spec for Replacement Rotors

I'm getting towards needing to replace the pads and I guess it would be a good idea to replace the rotors at the same time.

The only rotors I've found locally in England so far are EBC Turbo grooved rotors at $370 (£200) a pair shipped. Never heard of these before. Seems like a reasonable price and shipping from offshore would be pricey given the weight of these things.

What prices are you guys paying and can anyone confirm the correct size? It looks like 325mm front and 305mm rear???

I'm still struggling with search

Have you thought about having them turned ? We usually do not do it here in the US because we can get rotors for about $28.00/each at the local NAPA store. I do have my a Baer rotors turned as they are rather expensive. The charge is $50.00 for all four.

I had them turned on the Camaro Doug. The only thing is that if I then hit problems I'd be into another strip down, or even worse needing to get parts at short notice. Having work done on the car is expensive here. I think I'd probably be happy to do my own fit for straight replacements.
