**Brake rotors choice?**
hey GS bro..
for those who have experience using these rotors, could you kindly shed some feedbak/input?
1. Powerslot, most expensive ~$475/set f+r
2. Rotora, ~$325/set...
3. Irotors.com, ~$250/set
btw, is it true that both stock GS and IS share the same type/size rotors?
TIA

The GS and IS share the same rotors, calipers and brake pads.
Sorry, do not have any experience with the named rotors.

Bradi is a wellknown brand in the brake rotor industry and are based in Italy. Some people say that they are related to Brembo (or the Brembo family) and consider the Bradi quality equal to the Brembos.
By the way, most of the aftermarket rotors are made by Brembo or Bradi. These aftermarket rotor companies buy blank Brembo/Bradi and then 'enhance' them by drilling/slotting/....

I recently just installed my rotors, they were from i-rotors and were zinc coated I also purchased the brake pads from them, the fronts were (dura) pads and the rear was (axis metal masters) and also changed my brake lines to (goodridge) these are stainless steel.
I've only had these on for about a month but so far very pleased with them I was told from i-rotors that they use bradi rotors for this type of car. I haven't done any super hard braking as of yet since these only have a few miles on them at this time but will try to post at a later time on how their holding up and how they still look. My old rotors and pads were still in excellent shape pads probally had about a 40% wear on them so the only difference I've noticed so far is I don't have to push my brake pedal down as hard probally due to the lines (no spongy feel)

are these rotors on eBay the Bradi rotors? If so, this sounds like a great deal!

I just picked up some rotara rotors front and rear at a blowout price from Steve. Very impressed with the overal quality on these rotors. I have gotton these a while back, just havent had the time to install them. They are e-coated on the hub to prevent rust. I also ordered the Axiss Ultimate pads.
Rotora is really starting to make a name for them selves by selling high quality products at an affordable price.
They are kind of like Toyo tires when they first started out. Great quality tires at an affordable price. Afer they made a name for themselves their average price on tires have gone up by 30%
Trust me get the rotora you will not be dissappointed. Powerslot is okay quality...heard they get warped over time.

Hey 99gs300 your link didn't work when I tried it, but if your asking if the (i-rotors) are on e-bay the answer is yes (and was told by i-rotors that they got their blanks from Bradi)
