    I'm looking into buying slotted/crossed drilled rotors and ceramic pads. Any ideas which are good brands and a good website/store to buy from?

    I bought my PowerSlot slotted rotors with Hawk HPS pads from TireRack.com. Amazing brakes with incredibly longevity. They do filthy up your rims REALLY quick, but hot f*ing d* are they worth it! For even better results, buy the cryogenic-treated rotors.

    Front Rear Kit 4 Performance Drilled Slotted Brake Rotors and 8 Ceramic Pads | eBay
    I just bought these not too long ago, wasn't wanted to spend a bunch of money and just going for the look. Idk about quality but I looked up some reviews n seen they were good enough. I'm not a race car driver and dontx race a lot n slam my breaks, so far I just did my fronts because my rear caliper bracket bolts were stripped n haven't bothered with them yet n I haven't had problems. A little bit of squeaking tho but I forgot to put that red glue crap on my pad when installing.

    Brakeperformance.com was the lowest price when I bought my rotors. I bought ceramic pads at AutoZone which have been great

    I am looking to replace the rotors and pads on my wifes 2003
    durango 4.7L with 4wd.
    She travels up to Virginia in the mtns for work and I am concerned about heat dissipation.
    Should I go slotted/drilled rotors ? Ceramic or semi metallic pads ? I saw some Powerstop drilled/slotted on Rockauto that were reasonable.
    Any suggestions on brands or types ?
