Rotor opinions
Just saaw these on eBay, certainly a lot less expensive than brembo. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Magnu...Q5fAccessories
Anyone have any experience with Magnum rotors?
They would be going on a 93 si Sol.

Re: Rotor opinions
No experience with Magnum rortors, but why do you want drilled rotors? I also think $85 is way cheap and you usually get what you pay for.
FWIW, I recently replaced all 4 of my rotors with Centric e-coated rotors. I'm very pleased with the look and quality. Cost a whole lot more than what you're looking at though.

Re: Rotor opinions
These the ones?
Centric Parts 120.40021 Premium Brake Rotor
(Centric - 120.4, 12040021, CE120.40021, B000BZXQLO)
Price Range: $28.32 - $45.15 from 6 Sellers
Description: CENTRIC PREMIUM BRAKE DISC WITH BLACK E-COATED HUB -- Direct Fit OEM Replacement Brake Rotor, Centric Premium Black Rotors Offer Superior Machined Surfaces That Provide Smoother And Quieter Stops And Longer Brake Pad Life, Black E-Coating Gives Long Lasting Corrosion Protection, Centric Premium Rotors Meet Or Exceed OEM Standards For Excellence, Sold Individually
Looks fairly inexpensive really. What are the advantages of the e-coating?
I'm probably going to order http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CIVIC...Q5fAccessories
But to answer yours question, without having ABS my rotors seem to tear through brake pads quite quickly especially when going from 100-0 in under 250ft. I see with this cold weather how hot the rotors have been getting. I think the ceramics may be the way to go as far as pads. I understand they stay a bit cooler than kevlar. This true?
