Default Re: Is this a good deal? Rotors and Pads

I was also looking at the same exact pads on ebay, which would have come out to about $100 for the front and the rear.

Thanks for the link. The R1 rotors where my first choice, but for the whole setup (f+r rotors, and f+r ceramic pads) would have come out to about $300.

R1 Rotors f+r + shipping = $170
Ceramic pads + shipping = $110

Thats about right. Im now going to call up break labs and order over the phone. The guy told me over the phone is processed much faster.

Thanks for the info!

Yeah I was shocked as well at how fast the order process was completing it over the phone as compared to going through eBay. As R1 had posted on here, a lot companies use their rotors and some just put them in different boxes. BrakeLabs does not really hide anything in their choice of Rotors. And I cant complain with their choice either. And the Posi Quiet pads simply rock. The ceramics to this date have left virtually no detectable dust what so ever.

Show us some pics once you get those puppies installed
