Default Need rotors...any suggestions?

Anyone want to suggest some nice rotors? How are the Bear Eradispeeds? Do they weigh any less than stockers? Any other cost effective solutions?

I just put the eradispeed + (2 piece) on the front and regular 1 piece in the rear. The new fronts are 1/2 a pound heavier each and the rear is a few ounces heavier then stock. I did it 100% for looks, with thin spoke wheels my rusty old rotors looked pretty bad. The old rotors stopped just fine, I do notice these kick out a LOT more brake dust - hopefully that will get better with a few miles if not I'll buy some new stockers and off these. Sure looks good so I guess its worth it :)

I'll wait and see a couple weeks and see how bad the dusting gets, after 25 miles all four wheels are black (well grey, I have ceramic pads). I'm hoping it gets better with age :(

Hi guys,

Today I just received my shipment of DBA C5 rotors from Australia.
If any of you are interested in a special deal , I am open for a Group Purchase. These are top of the line rotors for less than a top of the line price.


I have mostly Drilled and Slotted, but I have another shipment coming in in 3 more weeks. I air freighted this shipment in, 1600 pounds of them, to get the ball rolling.

You can check out http://www.dba.com.au/rotors_gold.asp to have a look at them. also check out on my web site http://www.lgmotorsports.com/catalog...section=brakes under the G-stop name

Visually the rotors look like the ones on the DBA web page, except that the slots and X-drilled holes are in the same pattern as on my web site.

I have more fronts than rears, and I also have some that are just "slotted" for the weekend racers. I will also be getting C4 rotors in soon.

Let me know if there is any interest. The list price is $149 each front and rear. Let me know how much interest there is and I will work out a deal for the Forum members.

Thanks,

Lou Gigliotti http://www.lgmotorsports.com 972-272-7753

Hi guys,

Here is the deal: Normal price $149.95 each $599.80

1-5 deduct 8%......... $137.95 each.............$551.89 per set of 4

6-10 deduct 12%....... $131.95 each.............$527.89 per set of 4

11-15 deduct 14%....... $128.95 each.............$515.89 per set of 4

16-xx deduct 17%....... $124.95 each.............$497.89 per set of 4

I will have a photo that I can email to "Godspeed" or someone to post it.
These new rotors are much better looking than the rotors on my web site under the G-Stop photo.

Also note that if you buy my G-Stop 6 piston Brake package, you will get these rotors for $100 each with the package only. I will post more info on the Brake caliper package later.

Thanks guys, I am happy to be able to bring a new high quality product to C5 owners.
