Need rear rotor's

Need rear rotors pretty bad and i missed the GB a while back. I have a 50 mile round trip to work everyday and when I need to stop it's got to be without all the judder and shaking of the wheel. So what would be the best ones to get? and where would I get them from. thanks

So is there a diference between Stillen & Power Slot? And why is it that the rear rotors are more than the front being that the front rotors are bigger?

I thought so too on my car and when I changed the front ones the car was still shaking when I brake. So to test it out when slowing down I pulled E-brake and the car vibrated exact same way it does when press on the peddal. I am working on replacing my rears now too.

Got my rotors from a local CarQuest store for about $25 a piece and ceramic brake pads for about $40...

DaveB and I were talking about rotors today. He told me an interesting story of how much abuse he put them through to get them to warp. The result is it took him tens of hard stops at speeds slightly above the limit (sarcasm) to get them to warp. Some people have been unlucky with the maxima rotors but a lot of us have had great results. I got 63K miles on mine currently and will be able to turn them in another 5K or so. Altogether I predict I will get almost 80K out of them, and for the price I will buy stock again. They however will not compare to AM in regards to repeated high speed stops on the track
