idk Ebay is always iffy, and considering this is a part that stops your whole vehicle from smashing into a tree, other car ect. i wouldnt trust it.............summitracing.com is where i got my Drilled/Slotted rotors for i believe $39 a peice so like $90 with shipping for the front and theyare a legit company that you can trust

My guess would be they either rust hella fast or they warp easy. If you are trying to UPGRADE your car, don't buy cheaper parts than you are taking off.

get some real Brembo blanks and u'll be fine. their like less than $100 or something. i just know their pretty cheap. only way drilled/slotted rotors will make a noticable difference is when ur working the brakes very hard like in road racing conditions, in which u would most def not want to cheap out. good pads plus blank rotors will be more than plenty for street use. dont buy some no name rotors, thats just asking for trouble.

ive used them on my cars for about the last 3 years. Im of the opinion they are one of the few generic things on ebay worth the money. No rust, no warp and noticable increase in braking performance. Ive got them on my civic, an Audi A4 and my 99 P71. Thats just my review tho, of course with any generic part youre rolling dice...

check out THESE BREMBO vs. THESE GENERIC ONES. Spend the extra $20 or $30 or whatever it is and do it right once man
