Has anyone have any opinions or experience with the rotors that are selling on ebay that are between $79 to $120 a set. They seem cheap, but are they any better than the one you can buy at autozone for $90? I looking to upgrade my brakes for performance and looks, not much into racing.

 

couple of things come to mind that i've heard in the past
1 you get what you pay for
2 if it sounds to good to be true it usually is

 

I haven't had any problems with mine, and they sure do look better then the stock rotors........

 

If you're talking about the rotors on eBay from Hawk's Racing, I am using them on the rear of my car and have a pair of 1LE front rotors that I will be installing. The rear rotrs have performed really well. No problems to report.

 

i am not sure what brand, they dont say but they all claim to be zinc plated? does that mean anything? they cant be any worse than autozone's, i am not wanting to spend alot on brakes, i only drive my car in the spring and summer

 

I put the AutoZone rotors on my car, waste of money. I can't report any change in braking performance with them on there, I might as well just have gotten regular rotors.

 

The zinc plating prevents the rotors from rusting and keeps them looking nice unlike the stock or non-zinc plated rotors.

 

Cross-drilled rotors will give you the looks but they won't help much (if at all) in performance. See this archived thread from Altimas.net.
