rotor source on line

Where is a good rotor source online for the front / rears for a 06 TL AT.

Coolparts doesn't list them.

TYIA.

See our acurazine sponsor/vendors in the Off Topic, Sponsored Sales area here
Excelerate and MrHeelToe

Excelerate has Rotora slotted rotors
MrHeelToe carries RacingBrake brand
Both great for the TL

Hopefully you have a friend on the south side of the border-
shipping and fees are a killer ......

Actually I am looking for at the most drilled ones .. I'm not a fan of slotted etc ..

I live 11 miles from the US border and have a shipping addy there.

If you do some research you will find the drilled rotors are a for the most part. Cracks and other dangers lurk unseen in them.

Slotted- a side vent cut across the rotor face is really good because it allows buildup of gasses to escape and self cleans the pads for max performance
Both rotora and RB have this

What you really need is improved internal rotor cooling if you drive hard and repeated heavy use of brakes.
My opinion www.racingbrake.com is the way to go and what I use on my TL
read the tech info and buy the 1 piece rotors with Hawk HP+ pads -see www.heeltoeauto.com for MrHeelToe website and package deal- email him direct for price to your friends house!

Racing Brake also makes a normal finish rotor for less demanding applications,
but the slots rock!

I recently order some Brembo rotors for the wife's RL from www.autopartswarehouse.com. They carry other brands too. I had great service too.
