Default Warped Rotor Blues

Hey,

I need to upgrade the brakes on my '07 Mazda 6. Looking for suggestions. The OEM rotors were replaced with NAPA premiums. The last set has warped in about a year. Okay, living in NJ I do a lot of heavy braking. I've been looking at drilled and/or slotted rotors, but do not know which manufacturers to shop. Any suggestions?

Ray

I have had cross-drilled rotors and they suck. They were good for a year, and they were always lousy in the winter. Some slots would be OK, like 5-8.
Adams rotors is a sponsor on here and they make all kinds of rotors Click here: https://www.mazdaforum.com/forum/maz...nt-them-32246/
EBC has very good rotors as well. I could not afford these, however I have their pads which are good. Try to stay away from pads/rotors that need to be heated up first to work (ie: track pads/rotors).
I just recently bought Raybestos rotors as they were a reasonable good and very cheap option for me. This with the EBC Green Stuff pads are working well so far, but it's only been a couple months. https://www.mazdaforum.com/forum/maz...-rotors-34066/
