More of a show n tell. These are black zinc plated rotors from brakeperformance.com. They are awesome!! 30-40% more braking power. Ceramic pads with slotted and drill rotors shipped for 331.

From what I remember of ceramic brakes is they take warming up before you get that increased power and they don't fade as soon. In a jeep you want initial bite, and ceramics don't have as good of initial bite. It's the heat in the rotors that gives them the better braking power

Maybe things have changed since I was into racecars but I don't believe they have.

I had this same set up on the liberty and it was amazing. Im not sure the tech specs but they work. The ceramics are just a preference. The rotors are what are very so good!

just use better pads on the stock rotors for the same effect.
