Default Rotors.........Need to replace

It appears that I'm in need of a brake job. I predict that they will tell me the rotors need replacing, as they have 32,000 miles on them and they feel as if they are warping. If so, what would be a good replacement rotor for a daily driver (need specifics!) Also, would love to have the calipers painted, but how would I do that during a brake job? Buy the Zo6 red ones? Need some help!!!!

Check out Kens newsletters section on the Forum. GM has new C5 slotted/driller Performance rotors. The are on special for $110.00 each. You can get some good pads from there also. Im not sure they will let you come in and paint the rotors during the job. :hat
