What are rotors?
Rotors are the flat disk-like plates that provide friction for the brake pads to slow down your car. Some rotors have cooling fins between both faces are called vented rotors, or drilled which are called cross-drilled rotors. Replacing your factory rotors with aftermarket rotors will improve your braking power, which can be a high priority if you add performance parts to your car. You dont want to beef up the performance of your car without also improving your stopping power.

Do rotors come in sets of 4?
Rotors are sold individually, per side. Rotors should normally be replaced in sets of two; you should buy 2 rotors for the front, or 2 rotors for the rear, or all 4 at once.

How do you install rotors?
Rotors are installed by removing the entire brake assembly and caliper. Once removed, the factory rotor is taken off and the aftermarket rotor is installed. Everything is re-installed back together. Installing new brake pads is usually done at the same time rotors are being replaced.

Which brand is dependable for rotors?
Powerslot makes a line of high-performance brake rotors that can be counted on for quality.
