rx8store.net/rx7store.net brake rotor opinions plz???

Hey everyone its that time of year again when I bother the crap out of a store owner and various forum members by only purchasing a product and asking a million questions, hooraY!!! Im currently looking towards the purchase of new brake rotors and pads, so here are some options I've been looking at ; these drilled and slotted rotors http://www.rx7store.net/product_p/sl...otorrx8set.htm

now the website says there brembo rotors but it doesnt say that in the description hopefully jason can clear that up for me
Has anyone actually purchased these rotors do they work well are there anysigns of cracking or warping / various other defects that usually come with drilled and slotted rotors?

As for brake pads... I've come across 3 different sets ebc red/green stuff from 80-70 dollars does any1 have any opinions on them or specs and hawk hps.
Thanks for your help
THE MAGIX PUMA!!

I've got carbotech bobcat pads and the rx8store slotted rotors on the front---LOVE em. No signs of any rust/cracking or anything like that. Wonderful upgrade--plus they look cool. I don't trust any drilled rotors so I went with slotted.
