Need rotors
Daily driver. Would like slotted rotors with coating to prevent rust. Got new wheels and tires, anybody had luck with this. Looked at brakemotive. sugustions would be helpful.
Thanks

I got the Premium Series (drilled/slotted) rotors from R1 Concepts and couldn't be happier.
PS: Unless you track your car, I wouldn't worry about cross-drilled rotors cracking (as often discussed on this forum). There is nothing cooler looking with a nice set of wheels.

Brake motive seems to have a good reputation here on the forum. They are also priced without breaking the bank.

DBA T2 is a great rotor. I have heard about Brakemotive but somthing scares me about buying cheap brakes. Its less than $200 for 4 rotors and pads. Ill stay away from them.

My max brakes rotors/pads for all 4 wheels were $180, seem to work as good as the OEM's that were on the car and they are coated to boot.
