[j0e_p3t]

are there any decent rotors from ebay? or should i pay more for brembos from nopi? not looking for drilled or slotted rotors, just some new replacements without paying a lot for oem from toyota. any other places where i can get a good deal on rotors?

I got my Drilled/Slotted Rotors from eBay a while back. They are actually doing me good. So far so good. No cracks and no problems. They look good and so far so reliable. Love them. But I don't know about the recent ones being sold on eBay. They use to have so much parts on eBay for our cars back in the day. My friend has Drill/Slotted Brembo Rotors and his already starting to crack on him. I dont know. My 2 cents.

i heard cross drilled and/or slotted rotors from ebay (in general) easily crack, brake, rust, warp, or what-not. but i never heard anyone say anything about blanks from ebay. so what seller did you get your rotors from? and do these rotors look legit? seller has 100% feedback but i still dunno...
st front
gt rear

Yeah, those should be legal. The thing is about the rotors I got back then, it costed me 250 dollars shipped for both front and rear. And they were supposably high quality rotors from some what company. But now that I've just recently checked, I honestly don't think those rotors that costs 20 bucks will be very reliable. On eBay, the famous phrase "You get for what you pay for." comes into play.

EDIT: Oh yeah, let me try to check my feedbacks to see who I bought my rotors from. Just remember it was about 2 years ago so I'm not even sure if they are still selling their products.

EDIT: Yeah, I can't find the seller. I don't even think they left me a feedback.

its 20 bucks for each rotor, not for a pair. so it'll be about 160 with shipping for all 4. the brembo rotors from nopi will cost about 210 with shipping. so has anyone heard anything about affinia aimco rotors cuz if i can save 50 bucks then that'd be awesome.

go to tirerack.com for some BREMBO oem replacements....cheaper than the ones at advance, autozone blah blah blah brand named raybestos, etc etc

[j0e_p3t]

tire rack will cost 158 before tax and shipping. so it looks like it'll be around the same price as nopi, hopefully a lil cheaper depending on the shipping costs. but the shipping calculator is broken right now so yeah. thanks, i'll add that to my options. anyone have other info for rotors?
