Is it worth selling my stock rotors?
The fronts have about 6k miles on them, and the rears are about 4k (Mercedes replaced them free of charge because they couldn't figure out the screeching sound in my brakes)....car has never been tracked and lightly driven as a daily driver (something James at ACG can attest to since my stock rotors are there now). Would the price I could fetch for all 4 be so low that I might as well keep them?

Tough call, I would put a feeler out there and see what people offer you.
I'm sure they would sell its just a matter of how much.

$250 for all four? Aren't they like $3000 for brand new ones? I was thinking more like $750 for all 4....

Why not just sit on them? You never know if you'll need them and it's always nice to have a back-up set of critical parts like that...

BTW I love your wheels bro - they are the best-looking set of HRE's I've seen hands-down...I'm contemplating that exact set and finish!

I would keep the fronts as spares in case you track the car hard and warp the ones you have. The rears should be fine.

And the only major differences between the PP (Performance Package) and non PP, is that the rotors are two-piece compared to the one piece rotor. Are their also lighter. I would say that $750 is probably a good starting point.

Damn, my public low-ball offer has been exposed!

However, you can buy rotors for cheaper than what is above.

Yeah maybe I will sit on them. Funny you said that about my wheels, because at first, when I was waiting for them I was second guessing my decision but am stoked the way they came out. If you google C63 and HRE P47, there is a corvette forum where a lot of the posts rip my wheels. Ahhh well, maybe I wasnt meant to be a Vette owner!

Haaaaa, no worries...I just know the shipping alone will be a ***** because of how heavy they are and I figured if I got rid of them, might want to put some nice change in my bank account..

Either way if you do sell them, send me a pm. Just put up an asking price so i don't embarrass myself again.
