Front stock size performance brake rotors?

Wondering what people are using for a performance style rotor in stock sizing. I’m looking to upgrade my rotors as I am doing a Wilwood caliper kit. I would like to reduce front end weight as much as possible. Looking for recommendations on drilled and slotted 1” rotors.

Re: Front stock size performance brake rotors?

Also, since my truck has the 1” front rotors, is it true that trucks with this rotor also had the 2” wide rear drum brakes? I am searching for rotors, and a lot of places dont specify rotor width, just whether it was 2” brake shoe or 2 3/4” brake shoe.

Awesome. Thank you.

Has anyone used the Dynamic Friction rotors?
