Re: NEED HELP! Looking for brake rotors for a c70 AWD C70 98

Yes, my current rotors are warped after 15,000 miles.

The reason that I switched to brembo cross drilled rotors was that the OEM rotors warped out 3 times in under 15,000 miles. The factory brake system is undersized for the weight and balance of the car and the performance that the car has. Therefore, going back to the OEM is not the right answer. The problem is guaranteed to come back unless I can make the rotors larger and spread the heat over a larger braking surface. That's why the Volvo mechanic recommended putting an Volvo AWD brake system on my car.
