Never heard of the brand. Suzuka、（鈴鹿）.
If something looks too good to be true, it usually is.

Youre better off spending the extra cash and buying rotora slotted rotors form excelerate here on the boards. They're a reliable brand, and he's a reliable seller.

Yes. ROTORA's should last you 50-75K as long as you torque the lug nuts properly and in a star pattern, and break in the rotors properly.
