new rotors

Im going to need new rotors pretty soon, Im pretty sure it would be the rotors, but im having little jerks when I brake. So, does anyone know of a good place to get some drilled/slotted rotors? I think I would like to get drilled/slotted since Im replacing them anyway... Unless someone has a reasonable point and says Im just wasting money. Im finding them on ebay anywhere from $80-150 right now. You guys have any reviews for anywhere, or places you would recommend?

I saw some that were painted at the hubs to match the car. They were on ebay. Those will be the ones I will be getting. A buddy of mine got some on we found on ebay, they aren't on yet but look great. They came with race pads too. They were like 220 shipped for all four and pads.

I don't think the fronts are any different. You could always do the C5 conversion...

93-97 camaros, v6 and v8 both have the same fronts. the rears, if v6s are equipped, are also the same.

r1concepts kicks ***:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevy...7010QQtcZphoto

i'd recommend this though:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevy...5115QQtcZphoto

the first link has free metallic pads, but the second link is just rotors. i'd get just rotors from them and get ceramic pads elsewhere.

I thought about converting to disks in the rear... do you know approx. how much it would cost me? Also, you seem to have many guides for things... any for disk conversions? I dont really know much about brakes... not converting them anyway.

I got mine from R1Conceptz on ebay. 4 rotors and pads for a little under $250. I would not recommend their pads. They squeaked really bad when I put them on. I ended up ordering a set of Hawk performance pads and I love them.
