Front Brake Rotor Recommendations

Looking for new front rotors for my 00. I was probably just going to get the replacement ones from Moss Motors (I don't need slotted or anything) but if anyone has any other suggestions I'd appreciate the reply. Thanks.

Why would you be needing new rotors on this new of car? Why wouldn't you replace them with OEM if you don't need the extra performance of drilled / slotted rotors?

Just wondering.

You didn't answer my question though; what makes you think you need new rotors? This is not a normal maintenance item that you replace every 50k or something like that. They wear very little (the pads are made to wear so the rotors do not. Unless you've checked them and they have gone below minimal allowed thickness, or you've somehow warped them or run worn-out pads so long as to destroy the surface, there is no reason to replace them. I could see it if you raced it every weekend but then you'd be upgrading to a 'big brake kit' or drilled / slotted rotors to avoid overheating.

By the way, unless you're having trouble with vibration or something, you do not need to turn the rotors just because you're doing a brake job. I don't want to assume how much you do or do not know about this but, throwing away $40 doesn't make allot of sense.

Good luck, Chris
