Lightning Rotors from Ebay?
I'm also seriously considering these rotors....nice to know that some of you have already gotten them and liked them....My truck is an 01 so when I order I should make sure to say I have the 14mm studs ??? Also I drive my truck HARD on the street, if I opt for the Dimpled and Slotted versions, how often will these chew up the new Performance Friction Pads I'm goin to get as well....
PS STAY AWAY FROM CERAMIX PADS They CHEWED up my rotors BAD

I put my rears on a week ago, and just got the fronts on yesturday. So far they are breaking in great. They do make a "wishhh" noise when you are braking and have the window down. But, it don't bother me.
I bought a set like this off ebay a long while ago and the problem I'm having is when your next to a wall or barricade they pop. Every time I apply brakes I guess the air heats up in the drilled part and makes noise when they come around. Sounds like cards in the spokes! Kind of embaressing actually. I upgraded to the Hawk pads and the silicone DOT-5 fluid but after I destroyed the original rotors at a track day (with the Corvette club- I had to keep up ya know!) they have never acted as good as the stockers did. Maybe I didnt drain right or something but the fluid I flushed was BURNT looking. Any ideas on what the problem might be? They are just plain mushy but usable. I'm only under warranty for about 1K more miles.
