What do you Guys think about Baer Rotors? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I am not replacing just yet but I am just trying to research a bit, I use the Power stop kits on most of my Daily drivers, Cars and Trucks with great results.

I was thinking about them for the SS but I have a set of the Bears on a Saleen Mustang with Hawk Pads and they have held up well. Anyone use the Baers on their Camaro? I was thinking Baer with Stock pads.

I haven't used Baer before but I've seen their name thrown around. I think they are pretty well liked in a lot of circles. Especially for their big brake kits.

But I think like most brake companies now, all their rotors are made in China or Taiwan. So in reality there's not that big of a difference really. I would honestly be more concerned with making sure you really want drilled rotors.

I've ran drilled rotors before and they didn't last very long after I did a track day. I think the missing material did weaken them causing them to warp.

I have had good luck with slotted and drilled rotors, I understand there is no real performance advantage by using them and when i tracked my last car I didn't use them, But I would use some of the higher end ones for track days with out much worry.
