Cheap rotors? I'd go with some Powerslot rotors at least.

they we under a $100 each, i guess so, i just painted everything but the part where the breaks touch, ill buy better ones next time. or i guess i could resurface my old ones and put them back on, they were still good, just bumpy.

so what if your brakes are rusting, just drive around the block. the 2011 CTS V down the road had rust on his rotors. If the car sits longer than 3 days in a humid place it will have rust.

well if its on the part that the breaks dont touch it looks ugly. especially with wheels where u can see the breaks good.
