[Looking to upgrade brake rotors]

Has anyone ever used the Power Slot Premium Rotors?

 

http://www.powerslot.com/power_slot.php

 

Pricing seems reasonably for a slotted rotor and I like the fact they are finished in a durable black e-coat on the hat, edges and internal vanes.

 

I used it with my Acura a while back, looks good, works great and a reasonable price.

[MINIs Rally against Melanoma]

[Looking to upgrade brake rotors]

I am going to replace my brake pads and want to upgrade my rotors. Any thoughts on what type and the best place to buy them?

 

Thanks in advance, Brian :top:

 

PS I would love to upgrade to big brake kits but due to limited funds not ready for the step

 

OEM at Morristown MINI or use DCMM discount at some of the local dealers.

 

Or...... Brembo replacement rotors

[MINIs Rally against Melanoma]

Maryland portion is almost completed. It will be fun and fun. :top:

 

The rally will be Time-Distance format, plus some secret challenges. Navigator is a must have !!!
