Sweet, made in USA! Scroll through the rest of their types of rotors and weird, that's not on the other descriptions:
http://stoptech.com/products/rotors
Quick Google search verifies that they make them in China. Fuck 'em, Stoptech makes shitty brakes any way.
From Brembo's website:

But Brembo isn't a very good brake company any way. |
Many do outsourcing, of course. Many other not.
But you forget a little, little point.
Lets just take Brembo: yes, they have plants also in China, but what they do is having the metal formed, treated and machined there up to the last production step. And all done by direct engineering/supervision by Brembo's people there.
Would you think ECS has resident staff in Shenzhen to perform the quality control on the production line before the shipping to the US? Don't think so...
Then:
Brembo (or equivalent level) = outstanding, wherever the plant is
Others (many) = questionable if procured where the quality standard are known to be...questionable
If you then want to ask me my why I din't buy Brembos...the answer is
