If I were you, I would try and get them locally. Sometimes you get bad rotors/disc and exchanging it would be hassle free in you purchase locally. If you buy them from say EBAY, then u risk the extra shipping charges if you have to send them back.

i always buy my rotors from napa. they typically have a foreign or domestic made as options. i just bought a set of domestic for about 45 each (i think the foreign ones were about 32) because the domestic ones are painted on the non-pad contact areas to help prevent rusting. i've been buying rotors from them for the last 13 years and never had any problems or warping.

The Brembo "blanks" are known as Brembo replacement rotors. They are not drilled or slotted, just a plain smooth contact surface.
