Default Quick brake rotor decision...

I ordered a pair of plain OEM front rotors (brembo brand). I just received ATE slotted rotors by mistake. Should I keep the ATE ones? Are they better? Or should I tell ECS to send me the correct parts?

Default If you want stock rotors that badly

Sell the ATEs at a profit, then order a set of plain stockers from www.europartsdirect.com and pay way less than you did at ECS for them.

Default Actually EPD has them for $30 more

The brembos were $50/ea at ECS, and they are $65/ea at europartsdirect. I was just wondering if the ATEs were worth keeping or not. I wasn't planning on getting any type of drilled or slotted rotors.

Default Ah, ok. I usually buy the cheapest rotors they have

All the same to me as far as I'm concerned. But if I got the slotted rotors for the same price, I'd use them.

It should also be noted that EPD doesn't charge shipping for orders over $50...
