Will they work...yes; are they a high-quality rotor...no. Stay away from drilled rotors. Either get blanks or slotted rotors. I would recommend Centric brand blanks and slotted (PowerSlot) rotors.

Just be aware that for street driving slotted rotors will eat your pads about 25% faster, to no benefit.

You would recommend to get blanks for daily driving?

Yup... anything else will mean shorter service life for at least the pads, if not the rotors themselves, and benefit you not at all.
Only reason to use anything other than blanks for a normal street driven car is if you're willing to take the service life hits for the looks.
