I went through R1 Concepts and got their basic slotted rotors and a full set of Hawk HPS's for under 500 shipped. I did have to call and talk to them but was quite pleased with how they worked with me. They came recommend from my dad who has used them for his Jeeps, RX-7's and his old Vette. The rotors are over a year old and have some 50k on them and show little wear and still look good, minimal corrosion which says a lot for being on a car in NH that is driven all year. I am a very spirited driver and was able to destroy the OEM pads that had 15k on them when I bought the car in a little more then 10k miles. The HPS's hold up quiet well, and I do know there are plenty of other offerings but for a DD they have been excellent. What is nice is that I can go for a spirited drive in the white mountains and the hold up the whole time without becoming soft or slick.
