They would look and perform good but with a silver LS, I would consider getting black slotted rotors and paint your calipers red. Now that would really demand a lot of attention.

If I remember correctly gray said that when he changed his after a year from drilled/slotted to the big brake kit he thought that they were worped.
I'm not saying dont use them. Just putting in my thoughts since you can get dimpled\slotted for 70 dollars more. Hey to each his own. :Beer

Creme de la Creme
Well I am looking for the creme de la creme brake rotor/pad combonations for PURE PERFORMANCE on my 01 LS. I have been told Hawk brand is the best for front brakes only, or that they should be drilled/slotted or that they shouldn't due to potential cracking etc. etc.. I just want to know exactly what brand for both front/rear break pads AND rotors IS REALLY THE BEST for the LS. Also very helpful if one could provide a link to where one could find the products. Thanks in advance...01lssport said:

Oh, by the way, I'm not looking to spend more than $600.00 for both front/back brakes (rotors & pads) combined, so I may not get the creme de la creme---but it is still nice to know!!StinkinLinkinLS01 said:

well - to set your expectations.....
the creme de la creme - StopTech is $5,200 - http://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/showthread.php?t=7727&highlight=stoptech
so your $600 is way short.
I run:
• CC Rotorworks drilled and slotted rotors
• Porterfield Racing Dustless Pads (carbon kevlar R4-S High Performance Street and Autocross)
• StopTech Stainless Steel brake lines
• Dot4 - 446 degree brake fluid
• Brake cooling vents in lower grill (NACA Vents, aluminum brake spindle hose mount, Neoprene Duct Hose)
it would be right around $600....

You don't need drilled or slotted rotors! Frankly, drilled rotors provide nothing more than the "Bling/Bling" effect! Ford heavy duty brake fluid in the blue bottle is great fluid. Get Brembo rotors from Tire Rack.
