Product Update!

Our rotors now have cooling veins which are specific to each wheel!

So who wants a set?

What do you mean cooling veins? Do they look different?

Also the silver rotors, how do they look when they are broken in?

Price of 4 rotors and pads 2005 base coupe C6 ?

Can you ship to my shop mechanic where I take my Vette?

Didn't notice this, can you post response on C6 forum??

Thanks

Sergio

Cooling Vanes don't change how the rotor looks BUT it affects how the rotor is cooled. Directional cooling veins help extract hot air from the rotor. Here is a picture of how our rotors with directional cooling vanes are and how non-directional cooling vanes are.




Here is how the black looks after they are broken in


Yes we can ship to your mechanic directly We can also supply you with stainless steel lines and great brake pads also. I would recommend Hawk HPS which would give your brakes more bite.

So who needs some new rotors? We just upgraded ALL our rotors for the C5 and Base C6 (non-z51 and Z06) so now they will ALL have directional cooling vanes! Directional cooling vanes help with the extraction of heat for the rotors and help reduce brake fade and extend rotor life

So how much surface is touching the pad on a slotted/dimpled?

Not quite yet...need to save a few more coin. But your definitely the best price in town for this level of rotor and I'll very likely be a future customer! A few months ago I was very close to pulling the trigger on a set of PowerSlot Slotted only. The cheapest I could find was still $300 for the full set of 4 rotors only. My only hesitation has been that my car only has 18,500 miles on it and I can't fathom having to buy new rotors already. But this crazy pulsing I get at low speeds under braking is driving me nuts. Pads are like new, I know it is recommended to replace at the same time, but gosh I'd hate to take out nearly new pads just for the sake of it. Am I doing a disservice to the rotor if I didn't?

What drew me towards the Powerslot specifically was the lack of cross-drilled style and the directional vanes. My car is street driven, but I'd rather not even have to think about the potential to crack. You really need to hype up the directional vanes, not many competitors offer this and even the OEM ones have them. I wouldn't even consider brands that don't have it regardless of price.

So glad this post came back up and nice to see the Corvette tax is not present here.

So who needs some new rotors? These are the best rotors you can get for your money. Better than eBay rotors as these units have the correct cooling veins for maximum cooling on your rotors.
