E-bay Disc Brakes

are these as cheap as they seem or could they actually be decent

about $150 shipped. they aren't cadmium plated, but they are drilled, not slotted. i can feel my discs are slightly warped. would this make sense to do?

that's awfully cheap for front AND rear...i'd personally never buy those.

www.irotors.com is an awesome place to find rotors. more pricey, yes, but you will get what you paid for with them.

hey, couldn't help but notice the MN location. where exactly is that located from the cities? anyway, those brembo look nice as do the others. i wonder if your just paying for the name with the brembos? and what's best: dimpled, drilled, slotted or a combination? best for all-around driving i guess. they probably all have their advanteages.

i would get JUST dimpled, slotted, or combination of both. the ones that are drilled are known to crack because the drilling through the disc makes the integrity of the brakes weaker leading to cracking. the slots and dimples dont go through the metal so it doesnt make the integrity of the brakes weaker..

I've purchased from these guys before. Buy the Brembo ones they sell. I bought drilled Brembo on all four. They have lasted over 60,000 miles now. No warping or cracking. They shipp good too. You should give them a call. They sold them to me cheaper off E-bay, and ask them to cadium plate them. I think it's $10 extra.
