Has anyone ordered from here before? i was wondering if these rotors are good or not. They are cheap and include brake pads. Opinions? http://www.irotors.com/storefrontprofiles/DeluxeSFItemDetail.aspx?sid=1&sfid=149795&c=141180&i=233306308

You should get dimpled rotors instead of drilled ones. I've heard that rotors that aren't drilled properly tend to crack.

I ordered mine last week from there ebay store - much cheaper. Got it for 250+61$shipping and $1 in change for insurance. It Shipped earlier yesterday so should be getting it in few days now, but won't be installing them until 2 weeks later. If you search another thread there were couple people suggesting iROTORS - don't know if that'll help...

I have Stop Tech Front and Rear Slotted Rotors with Hawk HPS Brake Pads. The combo works well together. No noise and less brake dust.

I was interested in this combo. Do they bite well? How's performance compared to stock?

i heard this only happens when your using it for track purposes. I use mine as a DD, shouldent be a problem right?

Had mine on for over 3 years as a 'spirited' daily driver, with a few autocross sessions.

No cracks and wearing well.

Yeah....if anyone has the iRotors set, please let us know how they are. I am thinking about playing guinnea pig here, just because $310 shipped for all 4 plus pads is just very, very tempting....

i just ordered them by phone 5 minutes ago. the girl on the phone sounded hot, they are located in CA so you guys can probably get them cheaper then me (VA). She said that they get OEM rotors and slot and drill them, so im guessing that they are lighter then stock. The pads they come with are also low dust pads.

Stealth, thanks for posting. I could almost order them on your word alone. Every time I read a post of yours, I realize more and more why you are a mod here. Thanks for staying active.

Very interested in how the others turn out. Thanks guys for guinea piggin. I'm probably due for some new rotors and pads in the next year...so, this could be a great deal.

Please post back with stories.

^ i dident catch where in cali they were at but the area code there is 951 if that helps. rotorworks looks pretty nice as well. theres another store on ebay thats selling dimpled and slotted for cheap www.cquence.net . Im not sure about these though, what ive learned is that you get what you pay for but i have no idea if this applies to brake rotors.

Be sure to weight the rotors before putting them on and let us know!

Any updates on these? Sounds like a potentially good product/deal, but some first-hand comments would be excellent....
