Default R1 concepts

Hey I have been working on a deal for brakes for my 2008 with R1 concepts and they seem like a great company so far. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with R1 Concepts and would like to make a comment about their service and quality. Thanks in advance.

Just installed a set of R1 Concepts Premium rotors on my BMW 535i.
I got the drilled and slotted rotors and also got Posi-quiet pads.
No noise and half the dust of the stock pads.
The quality and finish is great.
Very happy with them.
Where are you ordering them from?
I got mine from Acute Performance in LA. Talk to Michael.
