Red face Rotors

The front brakes on my 02 diesel X are done.... I'm looking to replace the rotors with a better design, either the drilled or slotted ones, does anyone have any recommendations? I think Applied Rotor Tech's come highly recommeded.

I have owned 3 diesel ex's and all 3 I put performance friction rotors and pads on. Totally eliminates the warping problem and increases braking performance dramaticaly. A true 2 piece floating rotor design unlike anything on the market. Call if you have any questions

Do a search, I've only been here for a couple months and have seen at least 4 of the same thread just like this one go by with some good discussion.

We have had excellent use out of the rotors we purchased from Disc BrakesRUs.com

i used to go through mega lotta rotors but been holding well with therotors from DBRU. give them a shot.

I just recently put on power slot cryos and so far they've been great. I've done some towing and the difference is evident. It's too soon however for me to give long-term advice on warpage, but what I've read in this forum swayed me to go the route I did.
