I can't check out the link; work blockage FTL. But why don't you look into getting these: https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/deleted-threads-89/oem-size-performance-cross-drilled-slotted-rotors-17882/

I probably will by the end of the summer.

why does it say 04 cobalt?? If they don't know when the cobalt was made can you be sure they know the size?

I guess the only place to buy them is on ebay?

Any opinions on them would be great. I think a rotor is a rotor as far as i know

Beware, a "rotor is a rotor" is incorrect.
There are definitely cheap rotors out there. The cheaper rotors tend to come from off-shore companies and are made from a lower grade steel. These cheaper rotors tend to warp easier and have a shorter lifespan. As far as telling if the ones you are looking at are cheaper, ask where they are manufactured.
