whats your budget?

that will determine the choice! cheap drilled rotors are no bueno! if anything run slotted or quality drilled stuff.

cant tell you how many times we would get cheap drilled rotors in to be turned and there were cracks between the drilled holes!

If it matter any..regular brake rotors work better than drilled and slotted ..but don't look as cool...you can hit up summit racing..cobra drilled and slotted rotors aren't to expensive..goodluck

Ahh just from my perspective I would say go with some quality slotted rotors if you really don't want basic vented rotors. it won't make much difference but paired with a nice hawk street pad it can be a nice quality set up. Also I would upgrade to steel lines just to complete the package and not have a mushy pedal when it's all said and done. GOOD LUCK
