Ebay rotors.

Any comments on Steel Run cross drilled rotors, or X4 cross drilled rotors?
They are offered on Ebay for about $80 a pair.

Thanks from the Netherlands!

You know I bought a set about six months ago. I looked at the wide range of rotors available and price. I bought a set of silver zinc coated rotors cross drilled and sloted, I believe I payed about $100. for them and they appear to be a pretty good product.

I am still building the car so I can't give you a road test at this time. I am increasing horse power and wheel size so I felt a break upgrade was in order. Not being able to afford a "Big Brakes" refit at this time (see still building) I felt this to be a resonable alternative.

Well, I got an answer from X4 rotors, and the price including shipping to the Netherlands is just fine.
They have a choice of the rotors beeing drilled and slotted, or just drilled or just slotted, any opinions on that?
My car is a Formula with WS-6 suspension, with ventilated front rotors, but I gues all Firebirds use the same front rotors, because X4 rotors only have one type of rotor for all Firebirds 1982-1992, except some high performance models?
