The price was right for $240 shipped with painted hats. The only reason for going with these rotors was for appearance.
Where did you order these from? Thanks!

The C6 Z51 brackets should allow us to run larger rotors, so I wonder if there are any good dimpled or slotted only (not drilled) aftermarket upgrades for the C6 Z51 guys.

Anyone know? That is a killer price for those, if accurate, and if they were brand new.

The people that cracks drilled rotors are doing some continues heavy braking from road coarses. If you do that, then you need to stay away from drilled rotors. If it's just a daily driver, a cruise in show car, then you should be OK with drilled rotors. But I wouldn't use GM rotors if you are planing on showing them. Get some thats been painted, or cad plated. And I wouldn't spend more than $250 for a set of drilled rotors eithers. I think mine are called Sport brakes. So far, no cracks.
But my car seems to be on jackstands most of the time.

If anyone was interested I have the website for the dimpled/slotted rotors. You have to email them for a price and they quoted me $235 for all four rotors that will be dimpled/slotted with the hats painted black.
