Anybody on here ever try http://www.brakeperformance.com? The prices almost seem too good to be true. From what I've looked up its a legit company, i just don't know how good their product is.

Seems to be a love/hate relationship out there. Seems that warranty claims really cause alot of issues as do some warping of the rotors.
Don't really know which way on this one. Personally I'd like to know where the rotors and pads come from, and didn't find that listed.

I think its their product... but I'm not sure. I was hoping to hear a horror story or a great story because $360 for lines, rotors and pads is a damn good deal. Just scares me. I like being able to stop haha.

Just purchased delco rotors and hawk hps pads for front and rear for 300.

might just have to do that if nobody has tired their rotors. I really wanted a set of slotted rotors too...

2 year warranty on warping/cracking - lifetime on other issues. Are there issues in obtaining warranty parts?

If nobody has had a huge issue with them I'll be the guini pig.

Back in Febuary I bought rear rotors and pads, for my base 93, from Brake Performance. I went for the drilled rotors (DS-62041) and the premium semi metallic pads (PS-04130). Since then I have driven only about 1000 miles. There was no difference in brake performance. Typical C4 brakes, adequate but not outstanding. Before I bought them I spoke with a representative named "Jimmy" who assured me the rotors were cast in California, then machined in their facility.

The quality of the machine work and finish is very good. I was also impressed that the rotors were initialed, with an engraving tool, by either the machinist or the quality control inspector. I have never purchased autographed brake rotors.

When it's time for front brakes I'll be a repeat customer.
