"SS" Brake Rotors....R1 Concepts vs DBA

I really like the look of R1's drilled & slotted rotors and they are being offered for a really, really good price. Maryland Speed is offering DBA rotor kits (slotted) for $120 more for the set. I will never auto cross or bring my car to the track. Is it worth it for me to spend the extra on the DBA rotors? Thanks.

I love me R1 Rotors. Steven takes VERY good care of his customers! Not sure the extra $120 would be money well spent, but that is just my opinion.

Sweet!!! I've PM'd several people that posted on the R1 Rotor thread and received positive feedback from everyone. Time to stop fooling around and place my order. Thanks for your opinion Speed Kills.

R1's are for looks, DBA's are for performance. In your situation I'd go for R1's.

Has anyone used rotors from brake performance.com? If so, the feed back would be appreciated.

I have a pair of the slotted and drilled on my Silverado. Haven't had any issues.
