I need new rotors, driver side has a huge gash in it and have lots of squeeking. I just wanted to know if this was a pretty good kit. I really don't want to spend more than that, is there something better than this thats not much more?

Looks alright to me, just make sure you get the number of lugs you need. Hate it if you order 5 lugs but have 4 lug wheels.

Were the ones you got 4-lug rotors? The rotors in the pic are for 5-lug axleshafts.

Probably a good time just to upgrade to a Cobra system if you have the extra loot...good prices on Ebay, I got new PBR/Bullitt calipers and rotors for about $500...if you want to stay stock, I know you can get better prices on the rotors alone on Ebay, probably $100 even for Brembos

Yeah I like them. Its been not even a week and they still are breaking in and the stopping power is a lot more over stock. It'll be really good in about a month
