Default Bendix rotors, any good?

I got some "bendix" rotors for a good deal. Are these any good? they also say napa/reybestos

I want to know if i should go ahead and install em?

They were $25 cheaper each than the ones Eckler's sells.

I have a friend who owns a Clutch and Brake shop, and he sold me some bendix rotors and pads a year ago. Said that for normal driving they were the best you could get.....

Also, some of the rotors that you can get cheaper through parts stores you probably could not get a turn out of them when you do a brake job, but the Bendix, you could possibly get a turn out of them when you do a brake job......
