I'm not looking for a full BBK...just rotors since my stockers are warped and grooved and need replacing. The KVR rotors run about $220 a pair so it's not too bad. For pads I'm planning on EBC Green Stuff.
The only problem is that I haven't heard of KVR prior to researching brakes and I couldn't find many reviews on them, so I'm just looking to see if they're any good. After all - brakes are an important safety aspect of the car and I wouldn't want to compromise on them!
Also - would slotted rotors wear the brake pads quicker, and if so, by how much?
Thanks!
