I got Irotors drilled and slotted rotors. the first time they sent them to me it took like 2 weeks to get there, and they were rusted and looked spray painted. I contacted them, they seemed to have good customer service and they arranged for DHL to pick them up from my house. which they did. they said they were going to send me replacements. so I waited. and waited. and waited. finally after over a month of waiting and complaining, I finally got them. but when I did, I realized they were the same exact rotors, they just had been cleaned up a little. I could still see some traces of rust. Oh well, I put them on and they work great! (with Hawk HPS pads) but I can hear like a whirring sound from my back left wheel that speeds up as I speed up. I think it's the slots on my rotor against my pad.
moral of the story: Irotors rotors are cheap and work good, but I wouldn't ever buy from them again. --------------------  94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |
