There has been a rumour going around for quite a while that Autozone rotors are nothing more then rebadged Brembo rotors.

Are crossed drilled or slotted rotors les likely to wrap as well? and I read many article on wraped rotors, and wonder if at low speed when i brake the car actually pulls right,left,right,left... and so on. In all the articles i see that a symptom of wrapped rotors are shaking when braking at high speed(wich happens as well), but not pulling at slow speeds! any ideas?

If it is pulling it may be alignment or problem with brakes working evenly, hung up piston or something. Drilled are more likely to crack and will need to be replaced when you get new pads

not to mention, x-drilled rotors reek havoc on pads.
