Default Rotors

Got to screwing arround on eBay and saw a set of zinc plated, crosss drilled and slotted rotors for a Z06 that no one was bidding on. They were sitting at 179.00 for the whole set of 4, so I bid. Next thimg I know, I won them. The item number is at the end if anyone wants to look at them. Since they are for street appearence only, no track except the occasional run the the drag strip, I guess I will be happy with them. How does the price sound? Item # 7908746470 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ME:B:EOAB:MT:6

I'm not familiar with those but they look similar to the Sportbrakes rotors. For just street use they look like a good buy.

They look good. If possible use old pads to break them in. You are going to get some zinc scraping and old pads do a better job of material transfer which makes a difference on how the rotors will perform and how quiet they are.
