Cross Drilled Rotor Suggestion for 04 Turbo

Can anyone give me a suggestion on cross drilled rotors for an 04 Cayenne Turbo? I hope I don't offend anyone, but I'm looking for someone that's installed a set with no issues/good experience. I know of companies that make them that I've used for other cars I've had. However, I'm looking for someone that's used then on a Cayenne. I've looked on E-Bay and see a few but am always a little nervous on using someone new with personal experience or recommendation.

Happy New Year to everyone! :renntech:

Can you tell me the manufacturer? Any drawbacks? Did you use OEM pads?

Just bought a set of Zimmerman F&R cross drilled rotors for my 04 S from a vendor on Ebay per mudman2's suggestion.

Just checked again and they still have 9 sets. They show a BIN at 600 or best offer and I offered 450. The offer was IMMEDIATELY accepted which tells me I should have offered less. Shipping was 60.00

Took them a week to finally ship and that only after I initiated the dispute process with paypal. Finally got them one week after they were shipped.

Well, throwing caution to the wind, I went with slotted rooters instead of cross-drilled.

I did this to reduce the risk of debris getting between the rotor and pad (as compared to cross-drilled). It is very rare to see 4-wheel / off-road vehicles with nothing but non-grooved, non-drilled rotors.

I purchased all of my rotors (StopTech SportStops) and pads (Hawk HPS) from Zeckhausen Racing. Hardware was purchased from Porsche.

I chose to cryo-treat the rotors and pads to extend life. I used CryoScience.com

You will need to have a specialty bit to remove the rear rotors. I purchased mine from Snap On. It is a 16 mm triple-square socket driver bit (Snap On Part Number: STSM16E).

Best of luck.
