Question Recomendations for aftermarket rotors?
Now that I got my almost newlike C32 calipers.
I'm going to buy rotors for these calipers, if I don't want factory AMG drilled rotors, does Brembo or other brands offer slotted rotors in 345mm size for those calipers I have?

Anyone tried Black Diamond rotors?
I have seen they sell slotted discs for my calipers.
Is this a good HQ brand for automotive braking?

Brands like Zimmerman, Disc Italija and others are they good or better rotors than original AMG C32 rotors when it comes to cast iron material quality, long time wear, rust-protection, braking performance?

I guess I should stay away from drilled rotors because they crack their drilled holes.

means I have to start saving some bread!
I have to chose between:
stock AMG rotors
Zimmerman
Disc Italia
or some other brands I can't remember now.

If I'm not wrong was Zimmerman the manufacturer for OEM AMG rotors?
