Need new front brake rotors, what should I get?
I'm looking for something that will last and not shred the hell out of my brake pads. I will be running Mintex Redbox pads.

Will they fit under the stock 5 spokers?
I know they fit under the other 16" wheels, but I think the 5 spoke wheels offer a little less clearance. I'm not sure if that reduced clearance is on the inside of the wheel, or the spoke clearance.

I got some Zimmerman from AWE
they are x-drilled and in their site, they sell Mintex Redbox along also. U going slotted or x-drill or both? Dont do both since it weaken's the rotors and less surface area.
