Mid-America has the Zimmerman rotors. http://www.tweeks.com/shop?frame=8.2298

If you find a slightly better price ask for me and I will match it for you.

Tirerack has some good rotors listed. They are slotted instead of cross-drilled so you won't get the cracking. They have one that's Cryogenically frozen for greater durability and they don't cost a fortune.

Sounds good guys. Thanks very much.

BruceLEE, thanks for your offer. However, I plan on installing them myself, so I don't think I will need your brake guy, unless his parts are cheap!

I found some crossdrilled Zimmermans for ~$110 each FREE SHIPPING. Also, I'm going with Hawk HPS brake pads for about $104 each set for F & R. FREE SHIPPING also. total of about $650 or something.

I plan on getting these. This guy isn't to far away from me, and I confirmed that he will allow my to pick it up.

This along wilth some HAWK HPS brake pads. This ebay selller also had some cadmium plated brakes also; are these well worth it?

Also, how's everyone with Textar brake pads? I heard that they squeak a lot; whereas for the HAWKs, I've heard nothing but good things.
