» CMF MemberI recently purchased a pair of slotted rotors to replace the standard fronts. Bought from a company called "mintbitz" on eBay, who are based in the UK.
I was a bit hesitant at first, but i took a gamble and when they arrived i was extremely impressed with the quality. They are CNC machined discs. Solid, but slotted. You can choose from slotted, drilled, dimpled, slotted and drilled or slotted and dimpled (from memory).
They cost me about AU$170. The rotors were about 70 and the rest was postage. But all in all, it was relatively cheap.
After checkout they mentioned that vented discs were available for my model (july 95 k11 pre-facelift) but considering how thin the standard ones are (12mm) i thought it best to steer clear of those in case they didn't fit etc. But the brake fade problem is solved anyway and with the new bendix pads, the brakes feel 100% better.
I just thought this info may be of use to SOMEBODY...
NB: the discs are the same size in that photo.
