My 01 CLS has 59k miles on it. The front rotors were turned at about 32K miles because they warped and were vibrating when braking. They are now warped again. I have a new set of front Acura pads and have been looking at the aftermarket rotors. The service advisor even said try some like Brembo or Wildwood rotors. My question is: of the diffrent other kinds, slotted, crossdrilled, both and like stock. Is there one that is known for not warping. And which one is it/ brand make ?
Thanks for answers I need new front rotors and do not know which is best.

 

You can get Brembo blanks for the front from Tirerack.com @ $50 a piece. Many, many members have them.

The problem with slotted and crossdrilled is it can be hard to find a place that is able to turn them.

 

What are blanks. Non cross/ Non slotted ? Do I have to do anything to them before I install ? Thanks

 

Blanks are just plain rotors. They are installed just like stock brakes. They are the same size, etc.

 

Thanks

 

 

Yeah very ! Blanks ???? Funny the guy at Tirerack never heard them called that either, said to tell you they are just called "replacement rotors". Thanks for your help and usual smart comments.

 

What the hell are you talking about. Once the search function is back up and running do a serach for "brembo blanks" and you will get tons of responses.

They are called "blanks" because other companies take the "blank" rotor and either slot it or cross-drill it.

Way to be sarcastic after I help you out.

 

Do a :search: for "Brembo Blanks" and you'll get 408 pages. Looks like the guy at Tirerack hasn't learned everything there is to learn yet either.

 

OK just to satisfy you, I did a search at Google on "Brembo BLANKS" results were 846 results. Go try your own suggestions on "Brembo ROTORS" results were 98,600 results hummmm......... You learn anything ? In case you missed it before I said: Thanks for help and smart comments. I rest my case. Thanks again.
