Brake Rotors

My brakes are on their downhill stretch. I was going to get new rotors along w/ the brake pads so i could do it all at once. I was wondering if any of you guys knew of a site that had any full sets, front and back rotors *reputible brand* for the 2.2. Another ? is it pretty easy to do a brake job on our vehicles?
Thanks so much for your time.

They have complete sets for around $300.

It is a pretty easy job to do unless you have a '97, then it becomes a bitch! I'll post pics from my weekend excursion with a full replacement as well.

'97 front rotors are a bitch to replace unless you have one of these: http://murtaughs.tripod.com/murtaughs/index.htm

Thanks a lot for your help, i'll probably just have someone else do it. Any other sites or brands that you know of that make rotors? anyone?

They've got a good selection of rotors and pads, but you have to look up the parts for a 97 Accord. I just bought a set of Koni struts from them and they arrived in 3 days.

Whats the difference between cross-drilled, dimpled, or slotted?

Cooler and lower braking temperature. They wear on the pads quicker, but they look nice and have shorter stopping distances and perform better in bad weather.
