New Rotors

Hey guys its time to put new rotors on the old truck. I was wondering what everyone recommends, where to get it and how much. I was thinking about the ART rotors but I haven't found them anywhere.

I put a set of cryogenically treated slotted rotors from Power Slot and a set of Hawk pads on mine, and absolutely love them. They are really spendy though. If I remember right, retail is around $1200 for a full set of pads and rotors.

I got the Powerslot rotors and Hawk pads on the front and they are great. They are not the cryogenic one, and if i remember right I paid around $250 for the pair.

Just installed slotted rotors and ceramic pads from stop and go automotive on ebay and i am super happy with them.. I made some rv trips with them and they work great.. You can made him an offer..i reduce the "buy it now price" by $20 and he accepted it.. He might go lower.. see:

For the front, get the "frozen" cryogenically treated powerslot rotors. They are about $150 a rotor, and about $70 an axle for Hawk LTS pads. When i bought the brakes for the 00 Dually i used TireRack.com and had great service, quick shipping too. If i could stop spending money on engine parts, i'd get a full set of frozen PS rotors. I need some more breaking power, plus they'd look tit shining through my wheels.

At the rate your going I think your gonna have enough breaking power . Thanks kris, I was pondering on some locally that are 62 dollars each or these on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/F250-...QQcmdZViewItem
I am kinda on a budget because I have to get some new rubber. On those I think that I am going to go with the Nitto Terra Grapplers they seem good priced and I have heard alot of good things about them, plus I can get them 504 shipped heh.
