Brake Rotors

Believe it or not, the braking system in your car is the most neglected accessory on your vehicle, but also the most important since it keeps you from getting into accidents every time you stop. OEM rotors are designed to provide sufficient stopping power under normal conditions. However, when you begin to modify your vehicle, those conditions are no longer considered normal. Getting rid of your OEM rotors can have big benefits, in terms of both looks and performance. The most common type of rotor is what is termed cross-drilled. These rotors have a pattern of holes drilled through the rotor. In addition to being larger than OEM rotors, the drilled holes allow your rotor to remain cooler during braking, providing longer rotor and pad life, as well as less chance of warping. Brake dust and gases are vented through the holes, allowing your brake pads to grip more firmly, which also enhances braking. We offer a wide variety of brake system upgrades designed to improve performance and give your car better handling. We have both drilled and slotted rotors, bigger-brake rotor upgrades and even complete drum-to-disc conversion kits.
