I have heard from a few people now who do both autocross and lapping days to not get too fussed about rotor selection. Make sure your braking system is in good shape and replace parts as needed, but even the "cheap" rotors will do the job. I have a street/hybrid pad, relatively recent brake fluid, and Centric (I think) rotors off RockAuto. Been working well for me the past couple of years.
I installed Raybestos high carbon front rotors and Raybestos Element 3 rears on mine and they've been great. I'm using the Raybestos Element 3 pads as well.
I have a non-pp GTI and threw on Centric blank rotors and powerstop z23 pads from Rockauto. Cost around $400 CAD including shipping and tax..super cheap.
No complaints about them, I would certainly buy them again. Very little brake dust but with a strong bite.
I got ASP pads & fully coated Centric rotors when I did my big brake swap & they treated me well.
I got 75k miles out of my plain centric rotors with hard track use on my GE
Just replaced everything with new Raybestos coated rotors and Power Stop ceramic pads. Brakes work so nice/smooth now
I just did mine. I put on raybestos rotors and akebono pads. Stopping power is significantly better the the OE rotors and pads I took off. SIGNIFICANTLY.
I switched to slotted, cyro treated centric rotors and they have been great. Went on in 2016 and have no complaints.
Otherwise Centric has been solid on most of my cars.
Doesn’t really matter. But you’re better bet is slotted or blank. Drilled can crack under track day use. But that’s not really a problem for quality rotors. On our auto X Vett we used centric 120 smooth rotors.
