I have been searching online and have not found very much. What do you guys recommened? Can you provide links? I would like to order ASAP...

Right now I am looking at EBC ULTIMAX BLACKDASH SLOTTED BRAKE DISCS. They are in my price and I have read good things about EBC's...

My opinion is to go for cryo rotors without holes or slot. Not expensive for a pair of brembo rotor, you need the brembo cylinder as well

Because I love clogging up random forums!

I did a search and was not satisfied with what I found so I made a post. If you dont not like it then do not reply in MY thread. Simple as that. Go be an asshole somewhere else.

If your rotors are serviceable, use them until they aren't. If they are warped or undersized, get some oem from the dealer or Wagner or Raybestos. You can squander 500 bucks on fancy rotors but you won't stop any faster in normal use.

The car actually belongs to my mother. She is an older women who likes to brake 60-0 in 2ft. And you know how older people are set in their ways. I tell her how to brake properly every other day but its in one ear and out the other.
I just want to get her some rotors with better ventilation that will dissipate the heat better and decrease warping. Right now her complaint is that her car vibrates during braking and I know its from warped rotors. I put slotted rotors on her last car and they cured the issue and I was looking to get the same brand as last time but this particular company does not make them for an 07 camry yet...or at least it is not listed on the website.
I guess I am going to call summit racing and see what they have to offer.

Thank you for the help I have gotten so far. It is much appreciated.

I think OEM is a good replacement.

Redline_Me · 07-09-2009, 10:59 PM

I've had mine for 2 years now and two summer of 20" rims on them and they are still good and my pads as well. No shaking under breaking or anything.

Exactly. I have read many post that stating this. And instead of just turning the stock rotors and reusing them I just want to do the job one time and be done with it.

And that link provided gave no real info. I read it the other day and didnt think it was very helpful, but I do thank you for posting the link over.

If that's the case, you don't want slotted or drilled rotors. What you need is a big brake kit front and rear. Maybe take the brakes from the Tundra pickup or the Lexus LS. They will have higher heat capacity than the current brakes. Since the duty is smaller, another benefit is that they may last longer.

I'm guessing no. I don't know much about the Tundra but I assume it uses a 6 bolt or 8 bolt hub assembly. This will most certainly not bolt straight on to a 5 lug by 114.3mm Camry hub.
