Anyone think this is a good deal? I'm not looking for cross drilled, but this caught my attention. I know you can get rotors cheaper but living in Hawaii, shipping is usually a killer to the deal and locallly, brembo's are a bit more expensive than what mainlanders pay.

I remember reading once that drilled rotors were okay, but subject to warping or some other affliction, that slotted rotors were the way to go.
Does anyone have any information to either way?

You have any old pads laying around I could replace mine with too?

I think I may also have some real special ones with wings too.

But what about the rotors, any thoughts? Reviews look positive for this seller. Although I haven't heard back on shipping to here...

Put my new Roundel on at lunch today. Thanks

That is a pretty good price even if they were plain old rotors. I saw some Centric rotors for about $40 (average between front and back) each which to me is cheap, but these are cheaper than that, plus i could update my signature to include "cross drilled rotors", coool.
