Needed some front rotors and pads for inspection, so great reason to get slotted. just grabbed these up off of ebay

i was looking at these:

but i dont think ill have the car long enough to care about lifetime warrenty rotors. i bought cheapies for my GTP and they lasted fine. Especially since i got fronts and rears with pads for what it would cost for just the fronts.


We'll see. Cant beat $192 for 4 rotors and ceramic pads.

I like the performance look and feel of the rotors, but after a while, those rotors have a little clink/tick noise when braking at low speeds (5-10 mph)

Well I have the R1Concepts rotors and EBC RedStuff pads, but the clicking comes from the slots. I've had the rotors for over 2 years, and this noise developed about 8 months ago.

I'll have to see how it goes... the ones i had on my GTP and the ones on my mustang were slotted and drilled and made no noise...


I'll keep my fingers crossed :D

I've been running those brakes for about 3 months now and no problems. Not even a little tink!

Great deal, if you ask me!

2 week update. Absolutely no dust, no sounds or anything. You felt a little scraping in the pedal for the first day or 2 under hard braking which was I'm sure due to new pads and rotors, but as for any issues, there are none.

Killer deal on these brakes.
