Default Found a good deal on Brembo front rotors.

These are C5 and Z06 also C6 base rotors. The Cadiilac XLR also carries the same rotor.

If you buy 4 or more from here shipping is free.I have bought from here before, they are the real deal Brembo rotor.

Please let us know when you get them. I have the Brembo rotors on my car right now but the part number is W0133-1834250. Looking up 2005 XLR on AutoPartsWay (the vendor selling on Amazon) comes up with my part number and a price of $67 each. However, if you search for the part number listed in the first post here, it comes up 2005 XLR and $32.73 as well as the ...250 number. Why are they different?

If you look at the second one down it says NLA(No Longer Available) 3/10 March 10th.


There was a part number change somewhere along the way as I have found also.

I will post up when I get mine.

I got my Rotors from Autopartsway off Amazon. They were in plain white boxes, I e mailed about it and they said Brembo changed their packaging but (according to them) they are indeed Brembo blanks.


Also sent Brembo an e mail.

I looked at an old Brembo box yesterday that I bought from a different place over a year ago and it has the EXACT same style label with the exact same parts numbers on it.

Has anybody tracked these yet? How are they holding up compared to other "cheap" rotors?

Since nobody else has updated this thread with on-track experience, I will. I've put 4 track days (3-6 twenty minutes sessions per day) on these rotors with excellent results. The other "cheap" rotors that I ran last year would crack at least one front rotor per day on the same tracks. So far there are no cracks developing and only some slight heat checking. They still have at least a few more track days left in them. For the price, these rotors can't be beat.

In case it matters, I'm running Raybestos ST43 pads on my C5Z with DRM / Quantum cooling ducts.

These are not Brembo rotors(off Amazon), I e mailed Brembo and sent them pics. The box was plain white, not red. The center hat of the rotor is different than the Brembo.
