Default Drilled & Slotted Rotors $125 Set of 4

Has anyone ever heard of R1 Concepts before? I was looking for drilled and slotted rotors for a 98-02 Camaro when I found this place. They have sets of 4 brand new rotors for only $125. I'm not too sure about the reputation of this company and their product, but if anyone has, I would appreciate any information. In this instance the phrase "you get what you pay for" may take full effect.

I checked them out and they look like good rotors..Theyre Zinc plated so they wont rust and I believe it also comes with performance brake pads (kevlar). Cross Drilled / Slotted Rotors Really do help. Less sliding on wet pavement. Ten times more stopping power. Keeps the brakes cooler and they Look nice as well.

Thanks for the replies guys. On the website it even says they have a 90 day warranty, and guarantee against cracking. Once you try out those rotors shnormo, I would appreciate your opinion of them. Thanks once again.

It's cool, you can contact them on AIM or Yahoo messenger at R1concepts. The reason they haven't haven't been shipped yet is because they are currently getting zinc plated!

retail price for the rotors $75/each
I got them for $30/each
SSBC Calipers I paid $430 after tax
Russell Stainless Steel Brake Lines $101

Price for the truck lol
$156 shipped for the two rotors and pads with bearing races installed.
Now the bearings and the seals $86 for the set

The Camaro's brakes are so much stiffer with all those mods.

Those are the EBC rotors for the Camaro. R1's are zinc coated... so it looks shiny lol.
