Default Brembo Drilled Rotors

Will these fit a 97 ES300? I am thinking of getting these, are they worth it?
Thanks.

Cool

They should, but I *always* dissagree with drilled rotors... They can store less heat, are designed for a problem fixed BEFORE I WAS BORN, and are prone to cracking. Only ever proven useful with modern pads in the wet, and for people that like the above and think they look cool! (Cause that's all they got going for them!)

IMHO get blanks. They're $100+ cheaper a pair, stop even better, and are not prone to failures.




If you use your brakes so much you are toasting bads, I suggest get better pads and slotted rotors, but beware of horrid pad life!

Well then what about slotted? I am think of gettings some Rims and I don't want to look through and see my old Rotors...also it's a stock 97 ES...so there is not much high preformance drining like when I had my prelude...

Cool

If you want the look, tdo whatever you want.

Slotted are for racing
Blanks are the cheapest and stop the best
Drilled just look good to some people

Just do whatever floasts your boat, they'll all stop the car so long as you don't crack the rotors.
