If someone steals this auction from me...

There will be some serious brake damage to pay....

But in all honesty I wanted to get everyones opinion on these rotors I found on ebay.....

Look there cheaper then anything else around me (cheapest I could find is $107 each....I am starting to think I live in Millionare estates witht he prices for parts near me....)

SO anyway here is the link:



The set of rotors is $78, then additional $55 for the pads if I wanted to get those and then roughly $29 for shipping and handling to come to a grand total of $162.....

I don't think thats bad, and there slotted and drilled, and i alway here good things about rotors like that (the ones I have know are obviously not cutting it for the kind of braking I apprently do....)

I have the funds to get the brakes but I need opinions ASAP....

I want to do the work myself obviously so.....

Any imput would be great....

Thanks

Elton

lol dont worry i miss the link button too instead of haveing all that you could just say rotors but now you have to put all that in.... those rotors are drilled the may crack wich is not good ... i liked my power slot rotors i had on my last truck

fireteacher

whats wrong with brimbo's? (brembos?!!!) do a search on them. seems that is what everyone has had good luck with. i have never heard of the rotors in that auction so all i can do is offer what others like

YotaFun

yeah well I am a little tried and after a long day of trying to figure things out (and a couple of drinks.... but not too many..... I just need to get this done...)

My breaks have just started to grind so I need to get this done ASAP....

I want to save money on the breaks so I can invest mor in my rear Axel issue that I posted yesterday........

Slotted and drilled dont do a damn thing, infact vented blanks are still the best. Why else do you think nascar drivers use blanks?

Brembo and ac delco are also the only brands of rotors I will ever buy besides genuine yota.

OK..good luck! the auction end in 20 hours. plenty of time to make an educated decition

Don't waste your money. Those ebay rotors are garbage.

Read this stuff first and then make a decision...

you made it easy rocket!!

Elton

he's good at that .... whats ur budget for a set of rotors

YotaFun

I am sold, not getting those rotors....

Now looking into everything else....

YotaFun

Alright, you all are very good convincers.....

Now to convince my mother.......

And trying to see the cheapest place I can get them at.....

And Ideas about pads, everyone is trying something diffrent....

I do and perfectly even amoutn of highway and city driving (go figure) so I need an all around good pad that will one stop me smoothily form 75 to 0 micely and alos from 5 to 0 cyuled about 30 times in a matter of 2 min (if that just made any sense, I give porps to myself.....)

I really need to try doingmy reasearch more......

I am just geting so slightly aggrivated with my Yota latly.....

Such a love hate relationship.....

Sometimes more love then hate....but enoguh love to make me never want to get rid of her.....

Actually I was always really happy with yota oem brakes on my camry (I havent owned my t100 long enough to see). They are super thick.

However since I need new rotors and brakes I decided to go with brembo blanks and hawk LTS suv/truck pads from tirerack. Everyone is raving about the pads over on tirerack, checkout the reviews: http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/brake...uck/SUV%20Pads

fireteacher

i think the brembos are actually cheaper than the ones you were looking at

hehe sittin at work with absolutely nothing else to do can make searching entertaining...especially something as common as brakes.

didn't you read those links? Everyone swears by Performance Friction pads.

YotaFun

I have desided to jsut go with blank Brembo Rotors

Cheapest I could find are $53 for a set ($106 with shipping charges)

People seem to be alright with the blanks,
I would like to see the diffrence in slotted (I like to tyr before I get myself)
Might get stepdad to get them the next time he gets his brakes done...

As for pads,
I will Do reasearch tomorrow..
As for I have work in 5 hours so I need to get some sleep....

Please everyone keep voicing your opinions!!!

Thank you so much for your help!!!

You have no idea how much this is brighting my dark spirits....

Tirerack has brembo blanks for 41 bucks.. well for runners anyways

Infact I just bought them (right now) and a set of hawk lts pads for my t100.. lol
