$299 for 2 fronts and 2 rear rotors!? That seems a low so, I would be careful. I have never seen them on EBAY before and the fact that they use a hotmail email address makes me a little more suspicious. Good Luck if you decide to get them.

looks like they are manufactured by the same company who makes rotors for the 350z labeled as arospeed, and r1-racing.

i've heard of kims garage. "kim" didnt reply to my email, so i didnt go with "kims" roters.

BUT i did get my roters from r1concepts. theyre on ebay too. my total was 274 shipped for all 4 roters. i've seen pages of satisfied customers 75% of them were people who bough roters, so i said y not.

dont bother emailing them. call them directly. i emailed them 3 times before i got sick of waiting and called them.

im not telling you to buy from r1, but just giving you another option. if you want, wait until i get mine which should be here in a week or so, and then ill let you know of their quality.

peace

I've had a pair of the slotted/drilled arospeed rotors on my Z for 4 or 5 months now with no problems. I just wished they would have been coated to reduce the rust. Oh well, it was just to hold me over until I can get a full brake kit. I bought mine directly from arospeed.

I don't really need rotors yet, but these "looked" good and the zinc plating to prevent rust is a plus too - - let's keep reviewing these, maybe somebody will beat me to buying a set from "kim".
If he/she were smart they would reply to the email I sent requesting information and name dropping "MY350Z.com" - we'll see - - thanks for the replies,
Steve

I'm waiting for Baer Brakes to come out with 'Eradispeed' rotors for our car. I have 'eradispeed' for my SS camaro....pretty $$$ but well worth it. Zinc washed, and direct oem replacement. Not like some rotors that are basically just stock rotor's with holes drilled in them.
