+1, I am also trying to get some reviews on good rotors at a good cost.

I saw another place that some members were talking about a while back, it was an ebay store that sold some rotors that people were swearing by, anyone remember the name?

yes I have them on my Evo VIII, and I love them so far. I have the 4000 series one piece rotors with the kangaroo paw design inside. They have been great, incase you are curious I am using the hawk hp+ pads with them.

DBA makes great rotors. The 4000 and 5000 series seem to be pretty popular on the Evo VIII and IX.

What are your plans for the car? Depending on what you want to do, there may be other rotors you would want to consider.

Awesome rotors. I wouldn't use anything else. I like the temp marks on the side so you know how hot you're getting the rotors.

I've had issues with Stoptech's. Never had issues with DBA. You can guess what I'll be using on the X.
