You don't love your car if you want cheap brakes.

twitch,
Alot of people have tried the R1 rotors including me. If you are not doing any large track days they will be just fine. I have been using them with my nismo pads on non brembo. They work great during an autocross or on mountain runs.

Yea no autocrossing or track days for me, just to work and home, interstate driving also. My car is pretty much bone stock and I thought some cool looking rotors would be a nice little mod. Dont want any crap though thats gonna be an issue. I hear from people that u can get Brembo rotors for around 300 for all 4 but I cant seem to find them on the net anywhere for that price. Thought maybe someone on here could help.

The R1 concepts charges about 50 for shipping, and most other sites with other brands such as EBC, PowerSlot, and some others all have Free shipping with more expensive rotors. The R1 Concepts seems a little cheap for all 4 rotors. It makes me a little sceptical about there quality.

They are not the real Brembos at $300 for all 4. If you want a good rotor, you'll have to spend a little bit of money.
