Looking for new rotors- has anyone tried the ECS slotted rotors? Trying to decide between those or
OEM. I don't track it and rarely drag race so I don't need something huge. Mostly looking for reliable and cost-effective. Any other ideas besides the ECS? Thanks.

They are always warping on me.

The ECS have less metal to absorb heat so tend to expand and contract more and thus warp.
The advantage is that they are lighter than OEM.

I likely will not go back to them. What sound do you have? Mine have never sqeaked or
squeeled. They do make a light, low murmer though.
I thought that may have been from the fact that my ABS unit is unplugged, though.
I now think it's because of their bigger slots.
In theory, they should be a fine product. I'd say they are a good high quality street rotor with some bling, but certainly that's as far as I'd go.
