New Rotors
Probably need to change mine out since the OEM ones are starting to crack after about 4 HPDEs. Was probably going to go with Sebro slotted based on my research and perceived value. Any recommendations to source these? Thanks!

ECS Tuning is where I bought mine. Excellent bang for the buck for my needs. I'm not too hard on them. I run Performance Friction 08 Pads and have been very happy with the combo.

From where did you get them?
Anytime I’ve looked, I could only find base-sized DBA rotors (28 mm thick) as opposed to S-sized rotors (34 mm thick)...
Thanks.

I put dba 5000 series 2-piece slotted rotors on my wife's C2S a few years ago. Got them from www.top brakes.com which I think is out of Syracuse NY

I have slotted rotors and get them from Chris Whaley at LC Motorsports. Chris is great to deal with!

If your preference is for slotted rotors (instead of the cross drilled OEM discs from Porsche), it's hard to beat Sebros for the price.
Sebro slotted/coated rotors for a 997.2S currently run you the following from Pelican Parts and ECS Tuning:
Fronts $300-$320
Rears $275-$285
Front 350mm slotted/coated Sebros for a 997.1 Turbo (if you're running the caliper spacers up front) cost ~$330/pair.

I’m up for new pads and rotors(still on original front and rear rotors), 32K miles on my 997.2 - mostly street/freeway use no track anymore, are there pros vs cons to getting the slotted rotors over cross drilled ones base on the car’s current use?

Slotted rotors will wear the pads slightly faster, but you'll have fresher material contacting the rotor face without any glazing (under harder use). For street driving, I find drilled work the best as it gives the trapped gas layer (and steam layer when driving in the wet) an egress route, but don't like drilled for the track as they're more probe to developing cracks between the holes and it reduces the size of the heat sink.
