Your best bet are OEM rotors. Anything else will warp in no time.

Chinese manufacturers currently are flooding the auto parts market with substandard brake rotors. Insist that your supplier gives you rotors labeled as meeting the D3EA standard.

If you get crap rotors, you'll be sorry probably sooner than later because one hard stop with a heavy car like the J will warp the hell out of them. Rotors are integral to the proper function of a car so don't penny pinch on them. It just not worth it.

I remember someone writing in the old Yahoo forum (which could still be functioning) that when you have a high performance luxury car - the J is a high performance machine in its realm - you have to pay to play.

I got front SP slotted rotors through AZHITMAN, shipped was aroung $250? If memory serves right.

I think they were made in Italy. I set them up with AC Delco Durastop Ceramic pads. Really stops fast, a bit of noise under hard braking and no warping. Thses are supposed to be factory weight after being slotted.

Hope this helps,

They may make brembo blanks for these... If thats the case, those are a good rotor to go wtih.
