E-Bay rotors
Anyone bought any rotors off e-bay?
What make?
How are they?
Good quality?
Poor?
I think I might need a set in the near future?
Post up how you found them etc.

RE: E-Bay rotors
I personally would not buy something like rotors off Ebay. Even if they supplied a warranty. I don't know what you are exactly looking for, but I would not skimp on your brakes.
Reason:
If for some reason the rotors ordered crack or need warranty replacement, you would be stuck and have to send them back prior to getting another pair. If you buy locally, and you have a problem, you can pop them off and run to your local store for a quick swap.

RE: E-Bay rotors
I checked rockauto.com - a reputable site with good prices - and found they have Raybestos rotors for $30/each in "professional grade" and $65 each for "advanced technology performance" which means drilled & slotted.
I ran into this site that explains the performance line of brakes - sounds interesting - http://www.autocarepronews.com/defau...t&id=81885

I'm trying EBC brakes here at home in the UK. Trouble is, they export all of there rotors out to the USA.
I've been told they will have to re-import a set back for me and pass the double shipping charge, back onto me.
At $450 shipping for 1 full set of rotors alone, without the cost of the rotors included.......well..............raped comes to mind[:@]
