Question about brake rotors
If I intend to keep the stock brakes (4 wheel disc) what kind of replacement rotors should I consider...
I see rotors from NAPA ranging from $35 a piece to $250 for a set of two "performance" rotors..
Do I really see a "bump" in performance and quality with the added "bling"?
I already have some Hawks pads for the front waiting to be installed....If the rotors need to be replaces, is it worth it to go with the bling?

Re: Question about brake rotors
Unless you are doing road race I'd just get a set of decent blank rotors. Getting "performance" rotors for the street or drag strip is pretty much a waste of money.
