Opinions on R1 Concept Rotors and Pads

I'm in the market for new brakes and I saw these.
http://www.r1concepts.com/Items/Combo%20Pkg%20099?
I'm wondering if anyone has these?Are they worth the money?Or do you have any other combos?

Thanks

Everyone will give you different opinions about drilled, slotted, or drilled and slotted rotors as compared to oem rotors. I have read some good things about them. If you search those rotors on this site, you will find many responses. BTW, you can find those on ebay for I think around $200.

In my opinion, drilled & slotted is the way to go, the drilled holes deliver more air to cool the brakes down and and the slots allow the gases and not needed particles to get out, and the biogger the rotor the more the stopping power, So I would say go for it! I'm not too good when it comes to the types of steel and metals but make sure you get rotors that wont rust.
