how about these brakes?

I've heard about rotors drilled and cracking. I was on the phone with this seller and he told me his company has been in this buisness for a long time and they haven't received any complaints about cracking. He explained to me in great detail how and where they drill their holes on the rotor. Has anyone bought from this seller?

I have these. I got them in december, and i don't see anyhting wrong with 'em yet. The only con is the wirring noise you get when you moderately brake from 40-30 mi/hr. But otherwise, no regrets.....good stoppage.

GD= Group Deal. If you look in there you can get these from a true Brembo rep at a great price. I believe both fronts and rears are $145.

buy em from Automax_95

just to clarify your concerns, cracking doesnt mean what you think it means. your rotors wont crack into pieces when you apply the brakes and they wont fall off the hub. after 15-20k of driving, THIN, hair like cracks start to form strechin out from the holes on the rotors. thats when you have to throw your rotors out and get new ones. but with slotted or blank rotors, you would still be able to use em for another 30k miles
