DO NOT BUY FROM THEM! Simple answer: Their cheap1

The 1st time I ordered from them through eBay: I bought rotors for my Lexus front/back no problem got them installed didn’t rust too much in the beginning but ended up rusting all over, even on the parts that weren’t in contact with anything even though they were supposedly "rust proofed."

2nd time I cheaped out again and order a whole brake setup for my ML: Brake Pads, Rotors and Sensors front and back. Total was like 700. I ended up only getting half of what I ordered because the box it all came in broke in transit. Cheap packaging on their part! Thin *** cardboard box, not enough tape holding the **** together they could have used more boxes etc. Basically, their idiot’s who puts all that heavy **** into one little box and doesn’t even tape it up good!! It'll obviously tear through don’t you think!
I was pissed!
Long story short, I got my money back but not with out headache and some time loss.
Basically, don’t cheap out! And….
DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!

Buy from these guys!

I've had the Drilled & Slotted brake rotor's for my ML for 2 years now their still looking good.
But I suggest you get some decent brake pads to go along with the rotors.
I have porterfields their amazing no noise or dust!

Thanks for the info. They quoted me $300 for front & rear cross drilled rotors with zinc plating to resist rust, their brand of pads and shipping.... I thought it sounded to good.
