Let's talk rotors. Options

So next summer it'll be time for some new rotors since mine are getting old and I'm replacing most of the braking system. Right now I have drilled and slotted rotors on the car, but I'm not sure where they came from since the previous owner put them on. I don't know how it feels to have plain rotors on the car, but I'd rather have cross drilled or drilled and slotted on the car. I've heard of a few places such KVR Performance Brakes, iRotor (which I've heard mixed reviews), Powerstop, and then there is the stuff off ebay. I want to know what you guys would recommend as far as rotors go.


P.S. I don't want to hear any crap about why you don't need cross drilled or drilled and slotted. It's my preference, if you don't like it, don't say anything about it.

i have drilled and slotted rotors too even though i don't really need them under normal driving lol. but before getting new rotors id suggest measuring them and seeing if they are thick enough to get machined if they are then great! you don't even need to get new ones. if you do need new ones ebay rotors are just fine i don't use them personally but i know people who have and they don't have problems with them.. so you really can't go wrong with rotors as long as they fit. but i wouldn't get extremely cheep ones either because cheeper rotors tend to warp pretty quickly and i doubt you want to get your rotors machined every few months.
