I was going to do a brake job myself and replace the rotors.

Do these prices seem right for OEM?:

Rotors: $770 front pair
$770 rear pair

Pads: $520 front
$$396 rear

It seems very high considering some of the brake parts you can purchase non-OEM.

Does anyone have experience with DrilledRotors . com?

Thanks,

 

I put cross drilled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads front and rear on my XKR. got them on ebay from a company called Brake Labs out of California.for around $350. plus free shipping. they perform like they should,quiet stop on a dime hope this helps

 

Anyone have any experience of these front & rear from Britishparts they're a fraction of the price of the ones from SNG Barret?

I messaged you my VIN. Interested in OEM Rotors as I went with EBC Red for the Pads.

Thanks,

Slotted and drilled rotors are for appearance (bling) only- nothing to do with improved braking performance on the street.

 

I'll agree with you on the drilled part. The slots do make a difference in performance though...

 

Yes, but it's a marginal reduction in braking, not increase.

 

Offset by the other benefits that slotted rotors provide.

Don't get me wrong, I would not put slotted rotors on a regular street car. And I would only ever put drilled rotors on for the bling (which is pretty unlikely).

I've got slotted rotors on the XJR, but that's because it sees the circuit every now & then. I just ordered new rotors for the Land Rover, they are plain, but the High-Carbon ones from Centric.

All depends on what you want to do with the car...

 

Agreed !

 

Double down on Sqeeter91's suggestion, recently purchased drilled front and rear rotors from these guys. US made, lifetime warranty, great price.

 

Somehow I got EBC Ultimax USR1600 and USR1601's for an unheard of price on Amazon. It was strange, I had been watching them here and there. All of a sudden the price dropped, I purchased. When I clicked on it again the price was right back up. Anyway, I got a very good deal on the EBC Rotors and I had a code for AutoAnything and purchased the Red-Stuff pads. I was hoping to get to it this weekend, but I put brakes on my wife's Lexus RX yesterday, so I'm braked out for now.

 

I got rotors, pads & hardware for all 4 wheels from CrossDrilledBrakes.com for $481. Changing them out was simple, and relatively easy. The slotted/drilled rotors actually look rather smart.

 

I bought frozen rotors for the jag and they wear very little at all.
