Need Decent Rotor

Hello all,
My rotors just gave up on me and I am searching for a new rotor.
Does anyone know where to purchase drilled brembo and how much?
Is there any other option than brembo?

Some ppl said we have to change brake pad when we get new rotor, is it true?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Need Decent Rotor

why do you want cross drilled?? Slotted rotors are better, but you should be fine with regular rotors. No you don't need to change rotors and pads at the same time.

Cross drilled rotors are proned to cracking under pressure when compared to slotted or reg. blank rotors. Oh and most places the sell brembo cross drilled rotors are not genuine. Most places buy brembo blanks, and drill the rotors themselves. If you were able to find genuine cross drilled brembo rotors, they'd probably be pretty pricey.

Oh... I see..
The one on my car now is slotted and I am not impressed with it.

Should I go back to OEM? or is there any place I can buy blank Brembo?
Which is better?
