Just get stockers from GM parts direct or CED. Don't waste your money on slots or holes.

Unless the R1s cost less than the stock ones do . For me (being in ) the R1s were a mile cheaper as I was buying all 4 and so far absolutely 0 complaints .

For the OP, if you're replacing the pads and intend to use your car for any form of track (circuit not straight line) I'd recommend keeping the stock pads (replace with new if necessary) at the very least instead of replacing the fronts with Hawk HPS. Wangspeed can suggest other pads he mentioned in a thread but all I remember from the name is Cobalt *somethin*.

We've got OEM style replacement rotors in stock from Powerslot.

These are different than other OEM style replacement rotors, because they have a black hardcoat in the hat, and vanes to prevent rust ,and to keep them looking great!

Other rotors are just solid steel, which will oxidize and look rusty within hours after installation!

PLUS, you can get the front rotors for about $115 and the rears for about $98 a PAIR !!!

We also keep the Hawk Performance brake pads in stock as well.

The ss/tc rotors are not on their website, something to do with limited availability iirc.
