Hey guys I was just browsin thru ebay and found this rotor kit.....I was curious if anyone has used it or heard anything about it ??? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33564

I just bought one. Have not installed yet, but looks like good quality.

 

cool. after you install it could you post up your feelings on it ??? I'm lookin for a budget brake upgrade and this looks like its a pretty sweet deal. I just want some positive feedback on it before I drop the coin.

I would do a search on 'drilled' rotors before I would buy them.Stan

 

Well actually Stan I was considering the "dimpled and slotted" versions they say are now availible.....I was also looking at your rotors but I was curious as to if I'll still be able to run my 16" race rims on the truck or if they make it so a bigger wheel is required.


Josh

 

All they are selling is a stock replacement that is machined.So if the 16 wheel fits now it will fit after you install a set.stan
PS wise decision on not buying the drilled rotors.

 

your rotors are just a stock size machined with the dimples and slots ??


Josh

 

Drilled = cracking

I you want to know how to stop a 157mph Lightning? Ask Stan.

 

stock size is what I said but not the oem material make up.Stan

 

I have herd this many times as well, but then why does Brembo get almost 4g's for their setups, USING drilled rotors?

 

because they know some people still like it. Brembos drilled rotors will crack as well too (L8-Apex split a set) under the right conditions.

That's why brembo also sells slotted.

SOME rotors are cast with the drilling procedure in mind[cast ridges on the inside surface] and bembo is one.BUT call them up and ask IF they drill their race only rotors.NOT
Stan

Edit;so if I drill the rotors that I sell I can get more $ for them too.

 

Thanks Dan.

 

I have those Rotors..............They are Zinc Coated .....had them on for a while. Avail in dimpled or drlled and champhered.....
I was previously using Ceramic Pads...........After 3 sets of Cracked
Front Rotors....I am now using a metalic Quietstop pad.
CERAMIC Pads = mega heat.
These Rotors

 

Thanks for the info SoCal, has your braking performance increased alot with this set up ???
