Default powerslot rotors

Hi, I have probably a pretty stupid question, but would like to get some insite.....


well im running hawk break pads in front, and they are squeeking like crazy bc there semi-metalic


i was thinking of gettin powerslot rotors, since they were made for the hawk break pad, and would probably
stop the squeeking and give me even better stopping power.

would it be a good idea to replace the front rotors only? also has any1 heard bad/good things about
these
rotors?

About 3 months ago I had to replace my front rotors and pads (perfectly alright to just replace the front ones)... I went with Hawk's slotted rotors and pads. I am about 95% sure that they were the Hi-Performance street pads. I got them from http://www.brothersperformance.com/ as recomended by the sales person... not sure if they are semi-metallic or not, but they have been great. Plenty of stopping power and not noisy what so ever...

Cheap rotors will crack and warp. Quality rotors will not.
