    I see a posting on eBay for a pair of "Rotor Pros Custom Rotors" for Centurions. I've seen them more than once - crossdrilled. Does anybody know anything about these... used them? are they any good? I turned my originals for the last time, so I want to have some available for next time. Or does anybody have a better recommendation?

    These big cars generate massive heat and I'm concerned that typical replacements without the original grove, or some other special heat dissipation might fade more easily. These cars have better brakes than nearly anything else I've ever driven.

    I'm not a big fan of the original grooved rotors. When it came time to replace mine, it took my uncle and myself almost an hour to get the caliper off the passenger side. The pads wear into the groove and if you can't somehow get the caliper piston back all the way down, the pads lock into the rotor.

    These seem to work just fine for me! $25 a piece at O'Reilly.

    EEE Straight out of lo-cash!

    25$, my kind of price.. I'd go for those too. I don't really see the need for cross drilled stuff on a car like this. If you stick aftermarket whees on, with big gaps in em', I'd get the cross drilled ones for the looks, and looks only.
