What rotors are you using and what brake pads?

Please state if you are happy with the setup and/or what problems you are experiencing.

I got the 4 slotted rotors on the group deal from Raceconcepts.net. I'm using axxis semi metallic pads from autozone.

I had an initial problem with the rotors and had to have them turned out of the box but now they are great. I really need them in Austin traffic.

Stillen cross drilled rotors/Porterfield R4S pads. Installed approx 10,000 miles ago. I'm still very happy with them.

Hmmm, are u still on the same set of axxis pads since this is ur second set of rotors? It might just be screwed up pads. If that doesnt fix the problem id just go 4 the powerslot x-drilled rotors. I want to try the stillen but now that i see urz im not too sure anymore. They look nice, but they need to work perfect obviously. Looks like the pads are just chewing threw the rotors.

Powerslot rotors and Axxis Metal Master Pads. Hasn't even been 1000k since I put them on. But so far they're great. Waaayyy better than the stock rotors.

Stock rotors(second set, replaced together with stock pads). R4S- front, Vagner(noisy)-rear. Love R4S, already on the second set, no problems with rotors and they've already gone twice as much as the first set.
