Default What is the best rotor recommendation?

I need to replace the front rotors on my 2000 XJ8. I've checked the internet and prices are all across the board. Some surprisingly cheap - some very expensive.

I am confused. What is the best all around choice? Some of the cross-drilled rotors seem to be priced along with the standard rotors.

Any ideas?

Use the Partsgeek website but be sure you order the correct size rotors. Drilled rotors are not necessary and might look a little out of place.

I'd suggest the best you can afford. O.E.M spec' in pairs, as per Jaguar supplied.

Drilled rotors mean squeals, noise and potential for warping. Been there, done that with sets of Brembo's, (they aren't cheap).
OEM spec prices on these sites.
