Are these worth a damn?

[Tygr1]

Do you guys see any problems with running these rotors and pads for awhile?

I have those rotors but I am running Duralast Gold ceramic pads. No complaints from me on the rotors

I've ordered from brake motive in the past for my previous vehicles. Pretty good quality for the price IMO. Not sure how they would hold up in high horsepower applications though.

Get some prices from rotorpros.net. They're a super good middle of the road brand and cheap. I think I paid roughly that for their slotted fronts and pads. Both are holding up great and after a hundred or so break in miles the pads have barely any dust.

Bought mine last year from brakemotiv, (700hp, lots of 140-60 decels) seem to hold up pretty damn good. Almost put the womans face through the windshield a couple times!

I believe cross drilled rotors tend to crack.

This I like the looks but whenever I need brakes I'll probably just do slotted rotors.

When I got a quote for their pads and rotors it was double the price of the ones in that ebay add. It was around $300

 

[RichM1983]

Because of the comments here and the videos in the eBay ad I went ahead and purchased them. I'm in the market right now and figured for $150 if I even get a couple years out of them I'll be happy.

Thanks for the find OP.

I'll update this thread when I get them.

I paid 350 shipped from Rotorpros for drilled/slotted rotors all around with Hawk HPS pads. Pretty fair to me, shouldn't really cheap out on brakes.

That sounds about right.

 

[juskol18]

Did you ever order any?

 

[RichM1983]

I ordered a set and got them today. It will be a few months before I can actually test them out because I have a few things going on with the car.

Here are a few pics.

Yeah I ordered some too. Should be here next week.

 

[juskol18]

I installed my front pads and rotors today here are some before and after pics the "cobra" is sonic blue it's hard to tell

 

[Tygr1]

They look great juskol! Good job on the calipers!

as far as drilled rotors cracking, yes they will, on road race cars and such, a lot of 120+ to 15 mph slow downs plus auto-x, no issues with mine, though mine are power stop or something, can't remember, in any event, road course/track, get smooth or slotted, but for street driving and 1320, no problems if you like the look, and for auto-x, I've had zero issues... jmho.... in another thread, brake cooling is for rotor/pad life on the road courses... have a Kenny Brown setup coming as I get ready to go back state side with my cobra... should also help with my front skinnys getting hot as hell when I run back to back runs in the 1320...

I will have to consider these in the spring for my SVT Focus.

Is there any machine groves from balancing?
