Brake discs Raybestos or OEM Volkswagen

Raybestos Brake discs

Look for rotors made from high-carbon iron. High carbon rotors are going to handle heat and resist cracking/warping better than normal grey-iron rotors. They don't have to be extremely expensive either.

Raysbestos Street Performance rotors are high carbon and probably available on Rockauto.

Pros: handle heat, resist cracking
Cons: normal grey-iron rotors

Raybestos Brake discs

For rotors, you’re lighting money on fire if you get anything other than a set of non coated blanks. You aren’t going fast enough, or running long enough sessions to get them so hot that you need drilled and slotted in an attempt to drop every degree you can off the heat sinks, especially if you aren’t pushing for the full session. A quick browse on RockAuto shows that the cheapest drilled and slotted is just under x3 the price of a Raybestos blank. You can warp a set every weekend and still be way ahead (I promise you won’t warp a set every weekend unless you’re abusing the brakes).

Pros: cost-effective, durable for normal use

Raybestos Brake discs

OEM rotors rust like that in snowy areas, they look unevenly worn. If it gets a little worst you’re going to replace the pads and rotors. Ray bestos makes pads/rotors coated with zinc that won’t rust like the OEM ones.

Pros: zinc coated, won’t rust
Cons: unevenly worn, rust easily
