Why did you never tell me about the pads having a problem...at that point I probably would have remembered and could have gone back to Autozone since they had a lifetime warranty on them Regardless, I don't care if anyone buys the rotors I like/sell...not like they are in stock on the shelf for a Lightning and I need to sell them. I'm never a high pressure sales person....I'll order them if someone wants them otherwise it's their choice. I just make recommendations based on what I have seen/experienced first hand over the past 6 years with performance brakes. There is a lot of advertising "fluff" out there and some products are good and some bad....I just hate to see people waste money on the bad stuff. I admitted up front that I had never heard of Rotorpros and the first search I did found what I shared but I don't know where they are cast or what their pads compound consists of. They may be fine, they may not....you just have to try a set to find out. |

Re: front rotors
A lot of times on the internet it's a lot easier to find someone saying "Product X is nothing but shit!" than it is to find someone praising that product. People who buy them expecting them to be good, then get a good product, don't usually post high energy positive reviews, but people who are expecting a good product and get a bad one (whether it be a bad product or just a lemon set of brake rotors) get really pissed and jump on the internet to write reviews on every board they're a member of. I've seen it several times before. The internet can be a valuable tool for research, but sometimes you just have to take things with a grain of salt.

What I am surprised is that more people don't complain about Power Stop rotors....but most that I have talked to just figure for what they spent its a lesson learned and won't bother with posting bad reviews on the internet. This happens a lot where a lower cost item is just blown off but when it comes to a substantial amount of $$$ then you can expect the person will scream all over the net like a stuck pig But with rotors like I said it doesn't matter who makes them as long as they are USA Cast rotors...there is no disputing the quality difference between China and US cast rotors. Which I why I really am interested to hear from Eric when he gets his to see where the blanks were cast from Rotorpros....if US made then great because the price is good especially if US made |
