these brakes perform GREAT. i mean they are a great buy and they perform awsome, i will have pics up later of them on, i mean i could of bought the regular rotors at advance auto: 4 rotors and pads and it would of cost more than 229$, so yup they are some great brakes

wow that is cheap, i usually just get the fronts drilled and slotted from rotorpros on ebay for about that much. i remember the first time i went to do my brakes and autozone wanted $300 for one rotor

edit....nevermind just saw its for a 4x4, you guys have it easy with brakes, my next set i am getting the adapter hubs so i can use 4x4 rotors

i figure being that they were so cheap, it would be a low quality type of rotor. but its looking more like i will be giving these a shot.

Sorry to thread jack, but AZ defiantly get the the adapters. It's so much easier to find aftermarket rotors.

OP, they look good! Keep up the good work!

glad they work well. I paid $160 for all rotos and pads at Advances auto with a sale an mega online coupons. Not drilled-didnt want to worry about them cracking.

Do you have any updates on the performance of these rotors? What about brake dust with this pad and rotor setup? Anymore pics?

Thanks for the info.... Can't wait to see more pics. I don't know much about drilled and slotted rotors, do they need to be broken in a certain way? You know, so fast and then hard on the brakes, heat them up and then let them cool down or something like that. By the way, nice truck!!
