They didn't come slotted, so first you need to find out what brand they are.

Yep - I've got 'em on the front & rear of my car.

They're $140 each from Tire Rack. I looked all over the place for a better deal, but just couldn't find anybody that sold them for any less. I couldn't find any one piece made by anybody else, and all the 2 piece ones are a lot more expensive, although after you change the rotor ring a few times they might get closer in cost and the 2 piece are definitely lighter and would cool better.



Anyway....I like them very much and here's a link to them (you're looking for the DBA 4000 rotors):

Awesome! Thanks so much! I've got the Z06 rears on my car (drilled) and Stoptech 6 piston fronts (slotted)..... looks friggin' lame right now. I can afford $300 for new rears

Yes, and they work great, too!

I put them on in the beginning of Dec before an HPDE here at Daytona on the Rolex 24 course. I put on these DBA 4000 rotors all around as well as Hawk HP+ pads front and rear. I switched to Motul RBF 600. This setup worked great!!! I never got any fade at all. The pedal stayed nice and firm, but I did just get some Stoptech stainless braided lines I'm going to install this weekend.

Here's a picture where I'm just about to put the brakes to work bringing the Z down from about 165 to about 45 for that first tight turn into the infield.
