Title: Aftermarket Slotted Drilled Rotors/Brakes
Post by: harleydan on May 13, 2010, 14:43:52

Has anyone tried or has an opinion about some the aftermarket slotted drilled rotors/brakes that are being sold on eBay?  And will these fit a 1970 as the ads says 1967- 1969. S ome of the eBay links are as follows:

It appears that they only have these for the rear. So why bother.
The same rear rotors were used on MBZ models through the 80's but none of the later models shared the 280sl's front rotors.

I've never been a fan of aftermarket drilled rotors. Have seen too many crack.
