Default Rotors?

Does anyone know the stock size of the front brake rotors for a 98 Corvette? Also has anyone heard of magnum brake rotors. They are drilled and not slotted. I dont race the car, so I dont really need real high end rotors, just wondering if these are good or not. I found them on magnumbrakes.com Thanks for any help. Thanks Again

13.25" cryo is a waste on brake rotors how much are they?

They are around a 150.00 for all four. They are drilled but not slotted. So you think they are a waste of money? Thanks Again

They are just cast iron but if you like the look the price is good. You may want to paint them so the hub doesn't rust like they all do. NAPA rotors are 35-40 now each. If you are not running the track and street only they should be fine. They are all made in China now anyway.
