Drilled & slotted are great for keeping the temps down. Put slotted & drilled on the wife's Jeep cause she kept warping the solid ones.

 

Did you pair those up with ceramic brake pads ? I like the stopping power of the ceramic's, also like the fact that they don't cover my rims with brake dust like semi metallic pads do. Only minor disadvantage to ceramic pads is the initial abuse they require for break in.

 

This has been my go to for brakes. Buy a set up that matches the use of the vehicle. Run the Z36's on the Ram & Jeep, Z23's on me work beater. Not the cheapest but I have had no complaints on my end.

Hmmmm...... I have had less than stellar results having brake rotors shipped to my house. It all has to do with the handling of the Carrier - UPS, Fedex, and such. Two boxes arrived on my porch, both boxes had end flap impact damage. I always check the total runout of installed rotors - both were warped, in excess of the .005 TIR allowed. Parts from the Auto Parts Store seem to be handled better.....

@Achto  yes the rotors came with  matched ceramic  pads ,  very good results ,  fed x delivery  , box was  , intact  no  damage at all , also followed the  . pad break in  procedure , , the overall  effect is  an enormous  ammount of   solid / smooth  braking ,  pete

Just had my wife's Honda CRV in the shop for inspection and frt. brks. at the local independent Honda/Toyota shop. He installed Carquest professional High Carbon Rotors and charged me $67 ea. Less than what I could buy them for if I walked into the Advantage Auto store with a discount. OEM Honda pads@$79 and charged me an hour labor.
