The Powerstop 4 rotor/4 ceramic pad kit is around $300 as well. There seems to be good and bad reviews on all of these. I would imagine anything is better than the trash doing the stopping on my T now though. Lol!
the r1 are good rotors. just pull the trigger. mine were just cuz i did beat up on my truck a bit and alot of hard braking. ull be golden with these rotors. good quality. i was running the pads the rotors come with for a year too.

What could you possibly have done to cause them to crack like that if they were good rotors and you're not racing on a track?? I've been happy with mine but knowing this happened to yours under Street use makes me question their quality. Did you report it to them? Just curious what they came back with.

I haven't yet. I was about three clicks away from getting R1's direct from their site. I'll probably end up calling them tomorrow. I ain't skeered of no cracks!
I just put them on Saturday but they seem good so far. I checked a bunch of different forums and all had good reviews. Brake motive on eBay has almost 10,000 positive reviews so must be doin something right.
