These rotors are made by KVR performance for my company. Let me tell you about KVR performance, they are a premier manufacturer of performance break products. Unlike most other aftermarket companies, they specialize in brakes. They do not spend their time and effort looking to make customer's cars faster, or better looking. Their total effort is in making your vehicle stop better. A cross drilled rotor will reduce break fade by cooling the disc, giving better pedal feel. One of the most common complaints is regarding the braking systems. Most street performance vehicles are under braked and are in serious need of help. That is where they come in. Their custom manufactured 2 piece rotors are stock size, thus eliminating the need to upgrade wheels and tires, lighter than stock, and are directionally vaned to increase the cooling effect. Put this together with their carbon fiber break pads, stainless steel braided lines, (still in development) and performance DOT 5.1 break fluid, and you have a very good brake upgrade at moderate prices. They do also offer a full upgrade to 6 piston AP Racing calipers, 14.0" rotors and hardware for the enthusiast who want to spend more to make his car go faster, and look better. Keep in mind that this is a very heavy car at 4000 lbs. As for the rear rotors, just stock size 1 piece cross drilled rotors and good brake pads will help as there is very little breaking done in the rear. All brake pads create some brake gasses and dust. Having a way for this to dissipate will also aid in lowering brake temperatures and giving better pedal modulation and feel. I have been using cross drilled rotors and performance pads on my customer cars as well as my own for years. Trust me there is a big difference in braking as I am an admittedly a very spirited driver and we all need all the help we can get when it comes to braking.

Dennis Reinhart you will certainly be named as the "Reason for Divorce" on the paperwork!!! What the heck are you trying to do to me man......

Either you have to move farther away or I need to quit using the computer.....Well since none of those will happen....

See you Friday.... :D

But seriously....the blue would be ultra cool on the car....can you get blue rotors for the back as well?

Personally and I don't know if it is just me but the calipers on my MM are pretty dang ugly.....not even all shiny in one color. I would like an option at colored calipers or at least all steel looking ones.....

Slim chance but are the 2003 rots the same as the 2002? If so, I'd be interested. I know they changed the suspension but what about the brakes?
