Brakes for the CL63 Dev Package?

Hi everyone.

I have 20% left on my brakes and I need rotor + pads on all corners...

I was gonna place an order at Evosport but I saw this:

What's the catch?

I mean isn't supposed to cost $700 minimum?

Thanks

Those aren't OEM rotors as far as I know.

Then what's your question? Are you asking about the quality of the brake rotor? I'm not really sure what the markups on rotors are but even my cl65 at 1100 bucks a piece for steel, that seems absurd. Buy the ones in your link and see how they are and report back. If not, just stick to the OEM ones or the other ones you mentioned.

Yes, I was wondering about the quality of these rotors. Usually there is a year warranty with rotors. These come with a 3000 miles warranty and they're super cheap. I don't think that's a good sign..

Dude if this is for real, seriously I love you!!!

I was ready to spend those 3K on the brake job.

Have you got rotors for them? How many miles you put on them?

THANK YOU

I'm ordering these, I will let you know guys know if they're good or no. I'll just get the rotors and buy OEM or porterfield pads. If they hold for 6-8 months, I'll be happy.
