Aftermarket Rotors?

Will aftermarket rotors correct the braking vibration on a 2k max?

If so, what would you guys recommend?

Thanks

vibration might be warpage. new disk like a drilled set that are also thicker will fix that, giving you better stopping power and control.

I had brembo drilled and slotted on my 02..........

You can get Brembo blanks pretty cheap and they WILL solve the stock disk heat warping issue. The stock rotors are absolute garbage.
