True! For the front ones I bought were Powerstop Pads and Rotors off ebay,
Brakeoverstock I think, $150. Can't beat that and i wait to give the feedback until I am sure of the purchase. For the rears I bought Duralast rotors and Ceramic pads for about $114 from Autozone.

Sure you can buy some rotors that are in a Brembo box or something, but I would be willing to bet that they all buy from the same place and put it in their box. You do have to be careful, and I have made a few misjudgments, but usually the price was WAY too low and I should have known. For the most part I no longer buy anything outside the US. Sure you will spend a little more, but you will get it quicker, have more opportunity for a refund if needed and most likely won't get lead poisoning!

As long as you didn't buy them from McDonald's and put the rotors or your fingers in your mouth, I think you'll be alright!

The rotors I bought from Ebay were brakemotive seller also. No problems yet.
