Default Warped rotors

My front rotors are warped and I need to replace them since FORD said they would not under warranty. I was looking at some powerslots for $189 a pair and some KVR Brake Rotors from steeda. I want the best performance for my money under $200 and the quality that wont warp again. I even saw some brembo OEM replacements for $100 a pair. Is there a difference between drilled and slotted rotors? What ones do you recomend? Thanks!

Yes, it costs $330 shipped. This is one of those things where if you someone I hung out with, and didn't go this route...you'd never hear the end of it.

here you go. 4 rotors for 180. can't beat it. They are zinc coated so they won't rust. my friend has them on his z28 and loves them. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-...mZ300022642206
