Opinions on these rotors?

I found these on ebay, wondering what everyone thinks of the quality. I dont want to waste the money if they are just going to start warping in a few months. Im thinking you get what you pay for.

normally I shy away from that type of bay stuff but looking at the manufacture site looks like they are using the right materials and mentality, plus warranty against warping- with design in line with that..

if that price included pads I would be wary~

Try RacingBrake ET300 or ET500 pads with them- they work well with tough rotors that withstand some abuse and come back for more

Lets us know how they work, most anything is better than stock

that seller BrakeMotive is actually on Azine. here is a link to the group buy that was going on a little while ago: https://acurazine.com/forums/sponsored-sales-group-buys-10/brakemotive-fall-brake-rotor-pad-sale-748418/
also: https://acurazine.com/forums/sponsored-sales-group-buys-10/new-sponsor-introduction-brakemotive-kinetic-brake-special-722707/
there are some actual pics of the product in the second link. read what people had to say and decide for urself.

i was thinking of getting the 4 rotors and 4 pads package for about $180 or so but decided to save up some more money and eventually go with brembo drilled OE replacements from brakeworld.com and some Rotora ceramic pads.

Thanks for the links, very good information. I'd love brembo too but they are SO much money. Since I dont drive like a 16 year old anymore I'll probably be ok with less expensive brakes.

Well, now that I look at those Brembo's your talking about, they arnt too outragious, maybe I'll waite too. I was thinking of the brembo kits that are $2000+. Just the rotors are pretty reasonable.
