Lightbulb Rotors???

I just got a set of Zimmerman rotors for the front of my benz. I don't know if i should install them or sell them because i just installed a set of ATE rotors like 6 months ago. I got them for the looks but my car is no where ready for a meet or show. About performance? i only drive 65-70 so it's not really an issue. SO.....I want x-drilled rotors but i don't need them....should i save my money or install them??

let me get this straight..

You put on standard ate rotors 6 months ago... now you just bought some x-drilled zimmermans.

You want the x-drilled, but your car is nowhere near ready for you to show it off.

So you are asking if you should keep the zimmermans cross drilled and put them ont he car or stick witht he standard ATE?

That is a tough choice to make. me, I would just use the standard ones until you need to replace them then pop on the x-drilled ones.

I'd only go with Zimmermann rotors only if I had 500E brakes.

... other than that ... they are really good rotors. I'm going with ATE next week.
