so i know a guy offering 4 ebay slotted and drilled rotors (gt size) for 120 with about 4k miles on them. now i know drilled rotors arent ideal for heavy track usage, but im thinking that if i can get it down to like 80 bucks i might end up just picking them up in case something happens to my stock ones, or ill swap em out and when they crack or something ill put my stock ones back on. opinions?

That's not a deal. I can get you new blanks (good quality ones) for just over $200 for the set, that have no miles and no holes banged through them. The flip side you can get ATE's which aren't drilled (and new) for $69 each and are coated to prevent rust too.

and this is why i ask these questions before i spend money lol. what are ATEs sam?

I've been running these on my '08 for a year and a half or so. Mostly street use with just a little autocross, but frequent hard braking. For track use, you'd want to look a bit higher tham my Hawk HPS pads.

very cool ive never seen these rotors before. and a good price too. i might order the whole package sometime soon. and i run the HPS pads as well and theyve been good for me on the track, but then again im not in tune enough with my car to tell a difference tho

Yeah... Just not sure how I feel about "eBay" and "brakes" going together. I like knowing I can dependably stop at least as much as knowing i can get going fast.

Avoid eBay rotors with a passion.
Unless you like your brake pedal to massage your foot with the wild pulsations.
Some things, like stopping, have no place on eBay.
And to cheap out in the brake department is just wrong.
