I pulled my wheels off the other day, and pronounce my rotors dead on arrival. At 75,000 miles... these rotors are fried!

Being a 2009 SS/TC, I can't seem to find much of a selection of rotors. I'd prefer Baer, personally.

What's everyone using for replacement rotors on the SS/TC's?

 

I found some EBC black zinc plated and slotted rotors for the front and rear for about $375 for the set. Anyone tried these?

 

75k miles? thats a lot lol.

For front or rear. Actually the stock rotors and pads are fantastic for street use. If you race Powell has 2 piece floating rotors for the front.

 

Nah... no racing... just HEAVY street use. I'm an extremely aggressive driver, and I drive about 180 city miles per day. I put Baer 2-piece Eradispeed rotors on my last car, and they held up very well, but they're not available for the SS/TC. The stock front rotors have been pretty good about not warping, but they're missing 1/8" or more of material on each side... lol. There's an edge around each rotor you could cut yourself on.

The back rotors aren't as bad, but I intend to replace them as well. They were slightly damaged when a rear brake pad separated from it's backing at 18k miles. They just weren't damaged badly enough for me to bother replacing. But now that I'm doing rotors, I may as well do them all.

 

stock pads and rotors are very good. If you want, swap in more aggressive brake fluid. If you live in a area with winter and snow you'll want to swap back to stock or similar brake fluid.

 

Shiny ones will do ;-)
