Thinking of these rotors and pads

Can anyone suggest any that are better for the price?
Or am I on the right track with thinking of going with these?

I believe some people here have purchased R1 Concepts products and have been pleased. you might want to do a search.

for a full front and rear kit, that price is very good. I'd want a little more info on the pads though. they say OEM equivelent, so they should be fine.

Never go cheapo on brakes. Your life depends on them. Same reason I will NEVER put ebay brakes on any of my cars.

This brake package should fit you well. If you were interested in better pads or have any questions, feel free to PM me and I'll help you out. You can also place orders through me as well.

eBay brakes? Just because they are sold on eBay doesn't make them cheap

I have used the R1 Concepts on my wife's Nissan Armada and they have been great. Better than the original Nissan ones we had. Also they have great reviews on many car forums when I was searching for reviews before buying. I will get some for my 335i when mine need replacing.

Thanks for the support guys. We actually just became a vendor on this site recently. Ebay is just another channel of marketing where we sell our rotors. We'll continue to support the members on this site with our products.

I just recently purchased R1 Concepts Premium rotors (drilled only) for F & R. They arrived on time and packed up really nicely. They had no damage what so ever and looked amazing with the black coating on the hat.

I contacted them directly because I wanted just the rotors and not the pads. Got a great deal and I am completely happy with them. They even have a lifetime warranty while within a specified thickness.
