those are a stock replacment, ie make the car look good,

you may see some added stoping power, but i dont consider those an upgrade to performance.

i have stock rotors on my car, my brother has d/s cant tell the difference..


but he's do look alot better.

I have drilled and slotted rotors, they work pretty good, they do keep your brakes cooler and all a some stopping power.....you can actually feel a difference from the stock ones. Also the petal doesn't get as mushy in heavy braking

I have earls ss brake line kits and pads available too. I have ss lines on my own car, you should just check them over a few times a year and make sure there are no kinks or damaged sections in the braided lines. 99% of the failures are because people install them wrong.

Priority shipping will be $40 for the set of 4.

To the original question, they said it "Prevent FADDING" and "Prevent WRAPING".
Now "fadding" is just a lazy typo, but "wraping" would be pronounced "raping". That's just a bad sign right there. You dont want to hear rape when trying to buy something from an unknown source.

Buy from Aaaron. :)

I've heard that rotors that are drilled from blanks compromise the structural integrity of the rotor itself and can lead to cracked rotors. The only safe rotor to use that is drilled is one that was cast that way IMO. If it was my choice, I would buy ARZ's wilwood big brake kits, but if you can't afford that, then I would only trust Powerslot as a replace from the factory rotor, or a brembo BLANK. These are just my opinions, I am in no way trying to sway you guys from choosing your brake kit from my own personal preference ;).

LOVE the placebo effect.
