My HPDE 4th Gen Camaro needs some new rotors for my C5/6 front brakes. Pros and Cons of Plain, Cryo and High Carbon? The prices go from $110 to $208 for the pair. Enjoying Raybestos ST43 for pads.

I'd order the stoptech front rotors. We used to use Brembo OEM rotors, but those have been out of production for a long time for most of these cars. Stoptech makes a pillar vented rotor that's known to be quite durable (even in the OEM replacement versions, not just the two piece versions). They will be slotted, they don't seem to do a plain set. I'm about to toss a set on the rear of my Camaro to replace the original OEM rotors that appear to still be on the car.
I tried some Cryo rotors (came with a brake kit I got once) and it didn't seem to do anything. I've also seen some metallurgists say the cryo treatment just doesn't apply to rotor applications. |
