looking for new rotors
Looking for new rotors, and would like to hear your experiances. Here are my requirments:
1. Must not be larger then stock and fit CCW clasics, steet and strip
2. Light as possble, but not ultra expensive
3. Must allow for decent braking when cool, IE drag stip run off area
Any ideas???
Thanks!!!

NAPA run at $27 each or 4/$100
I think Rock Auto www.rockauto.com is still around $86 for 4 delivered.

Light weight and low cost do not go hand in hand. If you can find them, let me know. I have the sportbrake cross drilled and slotted rotors on my car but this is for the street. If you track, I would go with something like Stop Tech, or Wilwood. A lot of guys on the CF swear by the NAPA rotors because they are inexpensive and disposable. Good luck with it.
