I have a buddy of mine that bought the Race Concepts for his truck and he loves them. They look cool as hell looking through the spokes. I want a set when I wear mine pads down.

since you have the quad cab I would not go with Drilled Rotors. They seem to be more prone to cracking, and with the problems that the ram already has with the brakes.......


I got the Power Slot Slotted Rotor and Raybestos Pads on my truck They work much better then the stock setup did. Just pulled a full size car trailer and a jeep for about a 5 hour haul and had no problems either.

I have the NAPA high performance slotted/drilled rotors on our 05 and will never have anything else. The are awesome with their heavy duty pads. Price is right too.

Ive heard some people have had problems with drilled rotors cracking because the hole gives it a place to start from, basically, it could be a weak point, but it doesnt mean it will happen and Im sure there are thousands of people using them with no problems at all.
