Does that make sense to anyone? Not sure if I should trust a site that charges way more for a single rotor then they do for both rotors. I mean, its not even close!!
I went with the premium setup on mine.

Just to update everyone,

Cheapest/standard shipping to my home is $187 from Summit Racing, $228 from Rock Auto, and $247 from Amazon.
This is for a full kit of rotors and pads for the car, costing $250-300.

Frankly, I am just discouraged on having to pay close to $250 just for shipping some not so big parts. Since I will likely drive only 2000 miles
or so per summer (and per year) making having 3 mm on the brakes is not so bad and I can push this farther until I figure something out.

Money is actually not an issue at all, its the principle of paying that much for shipping.
