Default www.ROTORPROS.com Rotors???

Has anyone heard of www.ROTORPROS.com I checked out this Ebay link and they sound pretty good. I love the fact they have a great feedback score. Any input would be nice. Thanks http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1997-...spagenameZWDVW

As a long time Ebay'er myself, buying and selling, you always judge the seller/buyer by their feedback, and they do indeed have excellent feedback. I have seen these rotors on Ebay myself and been tempted to pick up a set. However a couple things do bother me. 1. If you scroll down to the other couple pictures at the bottom of the listing it has the picture of the rotors on the car, and it also has the picture of the set of rotors sitting behind 4 new brake lines (braided at that), even though it doesn't state anywhere that these come with the rotors, atleast not that I seen reading through it. 2. They advertise this set at $189.00, with $51.00 for shipping, for a total of $241.00, but they also advertise the same set, with NO shipping costs, at a BUY IT NOW for $275.00. They clearly state in there listing, "don't settle for less" or any of the "gimmics" from other Ebay sellers..... But isn't that exactly what this is? Lets show the cables to make it look like your getting them, and than lets advertise a BUY IT Now price with free shipping for $34.00 more than if you were to pay shipping. They may be excellent rotors, and a good price whichever way you choose to pay for them, however I do have a problem with sellers on Ebay that try to squeeze out every little penny through fancy wording or misleading auctions. Just my 2 cents.

I would stay away from dimpled or drilled rotors, primarily because track conditions (rapid heating and cooling) arre likely to cause the rotors to crack. I use what I consider as the best rotors out there:

They will not fade or crack AND are cadmium-plated, a much more durable protective surface compared to simple zinc-washing.
