To the OP:
Please let us know how these rotors perform, especially under "spirited driving" conditions, or even better, on the road course. I have long been looking for a nice drilled and slotted rotor option (cheap too) that will not warp or crack at the first sign of hard driving. Use these babies hard for a couple of weeks and then give us an update on how they are holding up. If we get a good review from you, I very well might pull the trigger on these.

I have the same rotors but Slotted only - Got them from Porterfield for just under $500. I installed the HP+ in the Front and HPS in the rear, but A BIG difference, just a little squeek in the front though, but well worth it!
OP How do you like your INVO'S? Im thinking of getting a set.....
crappy cell phone pics - Ill post up better ones later

$424 for all corners is a helluva deal, anyone want to buy my GM CDRs for $423, they have yet to see a track day and the hats are semi-painted, don't ask!!! |

Ha, crazy that's like three blocks away from my parents house. I'll have to stop by there when I go on leave next month. By the way what's the difference between "arrow dynamic" and "rounded slots" I wouldn't mind getting slotted rotors. I'm staying away from drilled rotors. I had a set of Baer rotors start to crack after a day at the Dragon when I took my Vette up there.
