Rotors for XKR with Handling Package???

Rotors for XKR with Handling Package???
Any good leads on rotors? Where do you get yours from?
Prefer drilled, but will take slotted...I do not like look of plain rotors...
Mine has the R Performance/Handling package, and it seems they are larger?
Brembo's are $1,100 a pair, so looking for something a bit less, but still quality.
thanks!

I currently have the Brembos on, but they are getting thin...
so any 355/330 will fit?
I have new front and rear pads...

Jaguar had 2 options: plain and drilled. I believe plain was sold with the silver calipers, whereas the drilled rotors were sold with the calipers painted red.
You can look around for Jaguar parts, here is an example from a reputable place:
XKR_XJR_Front_Rotor_Pair__R_model_only
Then, there is the after market. One of the manufacturers is Centric/StopTech. There are several options, from plain to drilled and possibly slotted. You can find those at Rockauto or even eBay. This will be the cheaper option.
Another manufacturer is BrakePerformance. They seem to make nice kits too, included slotted. Seems to be direct sales off of their web site.
Best of luck, let us know what you find.

Bluefin, If you need Rotors, you need to go to Frozen Rotors: High Performance Brake Pads and Brake Rotors - Frozen Rotors
I've used these People for years for Rotors and for Brake Pads....I have their Frozen Rotors on my 2005 XKR right now and they hardly show any wear - Over 40,000 miles...They will outlast the Car.......The Pads are dustless and really work well.....They freeze the Rotors down to something like -300 degrees to align the metal someway and it makes them last longer.....The Pads are Hawks and the ones I have are: Front: Hawk HP Plus #HP193N-670 @ $186.26 pair and the Rears are: Hawk HP Plus #HB194N.570 @ $156.58 pair.
This is the way to go, if you plan to keep the car....They are the best and you can use my Name!

I have Centric rotors for a few years now and most definitely would NOT recommend them. Have had all kinds of trouble and they were out of balance when I got them, if you can believe that. After lots of fiddling it is better but there is still a slight vibration that I just know is those stupid rotors.
Had been looking at Brake Performance based on some other peoples experience, but I am interested in what you decide to go with and your experience.

The only place besides the dealer I have found the correct rotors for the XKR Brembos is SNG Barrett. The XKR had an option for Brembo brakes and it was $500 extra. I still have the window sticker for the car. It came with the Detroit 20" BBS wheels as they were needed to clear the brakes.
