Aftermarket certainly seems like the way to go. I'm going to wait until me sensors go off, would rather spend my $ on summer fun then brakes right now.

Depends on what you're going to use them for. The best performance go with just a slotted rotor. Cross drilled rotors are weaker by design even if they have chamferred (sp?) holes and also wear out your pads quicker.

If you just want looks go for cross drilled & slotted IMHO.

I wouldn't get Ceramics cause they are hard on the Rotors. I believe I posted a Thread about it here somewhere. Semi-Metallic is the way to go IMHO.
