Brake Rotors???

I'm deciding to get these front rotors soon from comptech...what do they mean "Not For Racing"? will these rotors effect the offset like the brembo kit?

No offset difference, they are stock size. The "not for racing" is because they will not withstand the heat of doing so.

$135 each rotor for the Comptechs.

I'd rather get the Brembos. $246 a pair.

$302 for front and rear shipped. Going to use Acura pads, about $90 front and rear. I don't need metallic pads.

I replaced my brake fluid last weekend. Front pads were very low, front rotors need replacement, not warpped just thin.

Both are OEM Size. Bella & dj5 have the Rotora:

1killercls has the above Brembo:

Other members probably have them as well. Maybe they can give evaluations.

Other than drilled/slotted, I don't know if they are the same Brembo Tirerack sells:

You don't 'have' to change your fluid. But most dealers recommend it at 45k (and charge $100). I think the owners manual states 60k or 90k? It is cheap insurance and not that difficult.

Jens H.'s instructions for stainless brake lines and changing fluid:
