    Best Rotor?

    Need new crossdrilled rotors, was looking at the R1s, till i heard someone say that they crack on the drilled part of it. Was on BMC website lookin at the Stillen too. Any one have any pros/cons of either?

    I've been using R1's on my SRT for about 10 months and they're the smoothest rotors I've felt on a charger (this is my 2nd charger BTW). I don't road race and I use QS pads but thats because they'll still stop great and I don't have to clean the wheels every three days. They still look like they did when I put them on.

    they do look good. I have only heard of one case where there were cracks along hte holes. I like the custom engraving, how much extra was that? Did you have to forgo the slotted rotors to get the custom engraving part?

    I have never heard of any complaints about the R1s except for people that like to run their car hard on road race tracks.....however, that was only 1 person that I heard having a problem there as well.....would definitely suggest going with the R1s.

    yeah i think you have to forgo the slots, check pricing with R1 for that engraved stuff depends on what you want bro, these are the premiums with zinc coat so that will all come off after a few days leaving it in all the engraving and holes, it helps prevent rust
