Default why are these 2 piece Baer Eradispeed rotors so cheap?

http://www.sdpc2000.com/cart.asp?act...1637&pid=45846

i called the guy up and he confirmed that the rotors are two piece and the fronts are 13" and the rare ones are 12.

I have been looking for rotors on the web and i dont think any one offered two piece all around for $700.00 even in a group purchase? Any Ideas? He does not have them in stock at this moment but will get them next week.

It did say "comes in sets of four." Here's the snip:

"1997-Up Corvette EradiSpeed Rotor Combo
Price: $699.95
Part # xF7GY42011



This Eradispeed™ Rotor Combo features front and back rotors for 1997 and up C5 Corvettes. They feature 25% more mass where the pads ride, which absorbs more heat than stock rotors. With directional, curved vanes Baer has been able to increase durability to make enhance the life of the rotor. Each rotor features a zinc wash for remarkable rust protection.

Note: Comes in sets of 4."

Any problem with them being in the "discontinued" section?

I e-mailed them. The fronts are 2 piece and the rears are 1 piece. I would say it is misleading, because the rear 2 piece rotors do not have the black hats on them, they are all silver. Those ones from that company are 12.75" in the front and 12" in the rear.

That's not a bad price for 2 piece fronts and 1 piece rears though...
