EBC Sport Grooved Rotor

Anyone ever used these rotors before? I'm having a hard time finding crossdrilled or grooved rotors for my car and these are a reasonable price and seem to be good stuff... anyone have any idea?

Also, how often should I be checking my rear brakes? I've never had drum brakes in a car before, i'm not sure how to handle them. How many miles are they good for about? Front and rear?


Thanks so much for your help, guys and gals

im not sure about EBC brake rotors, but i know for about $245 shipped you can get Brembo Slotted & Vented rotors w/ high performance brake pads from TornActive...thats what i'd do since i know Brembo is a good brand.

i have the same question about the rear brakes...i would guess you could just have them checked at your regular maintinence intervals.
