Raceconcepts D/S Rotors + Posiquiet pads = NICE

So I just got my warped rotors and stock pads replaced, and what a difference!! Such smooth nice braking, I'm really enjoying it.

For everyone that needs brakes, I reccomend these, cost me
$130 for all 4 rotors and $70 for all 4 pads- my mechanic put them on for $80 bringing the total to $280 which is probably less than I would have paid @ Midas for crappy parts.

Ebay, there are a ton of rotors on there, but do a 3.2 tl search for parts and accessories, you should be able to find the raceconcepts brand..

Well, how long have you had them? Anything is probably better than old pads and warped rotors. Give them some time then see how these ebay rotors withstand. That's pretty darn cheap for all four rotors.

^The sellers name is raceconcept.

Spene, give us updates as to how these are holding up in the next few weeks. If they are all good, im gonna give them a shot and pair them up with some hawk pads.

It was Raceconcepts brand, which I have seen spoken highly of. They are perfect right now, but I will update on how they are holding up.

I put on some raceconcepts slotted and drilled rotors just a little over a year ago and now have about 35,000 miles on them. Put on Raybestos Quiet Stop pads and have been happy with the pads since they're practically dustless and the rotors are holding up fine for me.

Well, actually, I think Midas is advertising at $89.95 per axle, which would bring the total for all 4 corners to about $180. You spent an extra hundred bucks.

While we are on the subject of ebay rotors, are the Gripforce F1 rotors any good? I know these are all cheap alternatives to well known brand names ones, but I figure some ebay stuff isnt too bad (XS Power headers for example).

Perhaps, but I never have gotten out of there for under $300. Also, I wouldn't have the level of rotor that I have on it now.

i had rotors done on my Jeep once during one of their $89.95 sales and even though I paid that for the one axle, I had a $380 bill at the end beacuse they charge you for EVERYTHING. And they took 4 hours to do two rotors and pads once it was on the lift. I could have done it faster. I should have.

I hope they work out for you but for me I would be wary of cheap slotted/drilled rotors from ebay. I heard alot of sellers on there take cheap OEM rotors and drill and slot them themselves which makes it weaker and prone to crack. Just my .
