what happened to brembo blank?

hi guys!

just wanna ask you about this.......

is brembo blank rotor still available for sale?

i checked out several shops, they said that they're no longer producing these...

any vendor here still selling brembo blank rotors?? PM me with the price shipped to 14221 plzz...i really need it now..

ok, beside that....if other's fail that blanks are no longer produced, what kind of rotor should i buy? drill? slotted? cross drilled?

i'm just gonna use it for normal driving...so..

thanx!

sounds like they just want to sell you some thing more expensive...

other wise.... Slotted rotors may be of use, as they help reduce the chance of glazing pads, but they will eat pads quicker too... AVOID drilled/crossdrilled rotors in High performance applications.

Are those rotors just for asthetics or do they significantly improve your stopping power.

They do nothing to help you stop faster, they probably help you stop slower, but they do dissapate heat faster, only problem is, its unlikely you'll overheat them.
