New brake rotors and pads!

Well my stock rotors and pads are pretty much done for so I decided order new rotors and pads. Ordered cross drilled and slotted rotors with black zinc coating from brakeperformance.com for $329 shipped. I also ordered some hawk ceramic pads from Amazon for $208 front/rear shipped! They should be here soon and will update with pics and a quick review.

Anyone else run this combo? How do you like them?

Yes all 4 rotors, and last I checked they are offering 35% off instead of the 30 I got.

prices are cheap that's for certain...just ordered EBC rotors, hawk pads, and SS lines and paid a hell of a lot more than the $330 they're selling for...just not certain cheap is the word that i'd be focusing on with my brakes best of luck!

Cheap price does not mean cheap parts, smart people shop for best price.

Finally got them installed. So far they are great! No noise so far and stopping power I think is a little better then the stock setup. The zinc coating is still wearing off but here's some pics:

Sweet! I've been looking around for calipers and rotors. Decided to go with Chrome Brakes black rotors and red powder coat my oem calipers

the only thing i could see being an issue with the "cheaper" rotors usually (especially drilled) would be stress cracks where the drills are if you have to apply the brakes heavily
