i was tight on $$$ so i went with OE Brembo Disks but went with EBC Red Stuff Ceramic Pads stops better than stock now and dust a lot less.

Just did the same yesterday---OEM rotors and Morse ceramics. So far so good. Pads were only $40 from Autozone.

Hello everyone. I'm due for a brake pad change soon (and a while back not sure if you remember my thread but I had a hole in my rotor...literally a hole...and whoever did follow that thread....the hole is huge now...brought my car in for rotation/balance and all the techs mention how they never seen such a thing...not even when cars have been on the salt roads for a while).
I was wondering, has anyone ever tried purchasing from a company called R1 Concepts? They have their own website and offer even cheaper prices on their eBay auctions. Now I know many eBay products are of poor quality, but some are actually pretty good (some personal experiences and some gathered from others). I was planning to purchase some of their premium line rotors that come drilled/slotted at a pretty unbeatable price. Has anyone ever bought brake components from them? (They're a company that only sells brakes and clutches I think)
