no experience with them, but i would beware of buying cross-drilled brake rotors from anyone other than authorised distributors of the product, brembo in this case.
i have witnessed first hand some of the shadiness that goes on with x-drilled rotors.
i’ve literally seen 40+ year old asian women with a paper template and a mastercraft drill press x-drilling $25 brake rotors then rattle-can rust painting the hub with another paper template… only to see these things end up on ebay for an inflated price.
this was in Toronto, up off of Kennedy a few years back… i only buy rotors from reputable places since then.
Based on this sentence alone I wouldn’t go near them:
“If you are a car enthusiast who is interested in upgrading your brake system for the racing events and make it more sports style and powerful, we also have Super Enhance cross drilled rotors that with special design!”
Lol, all I mean is that I should probably ask if an old asian woman is operating their drill press. Also, I looked up there phone number, not anywhere near Kennedy…
where would you recommend finding quality drilled rotors in the GTA area?
I’m not a track star, 90% poser. I just want them to look pretty.
i’ll throw down the TSN guarantee that they are using shit.
you can buy china-rotors for $10 for a 240sx… these guys are buying those and drilling / painting them. The $10 rotors dont even last a year of hard driving, they will warp quickly… imaging reducing the surface area by drilling through them? fuck that shit.
i can’t beleive how many people fall for this shit.
i suppose one way to check is that true x-drilled, or at least on the brembos, have a chamferred edge on the hole. A drill press wont do that.
ya well thats just insane not to chanfer the edge cause it is going to rip apart you pads couse that edge is sharp as fuck after you drill it. and to counter sink a hole is literly like 10sec a hole so if they dont want to do that… then my god wow
OK, I’m glad we had this discussion. Thanks for all the input. Like I said before, I don’t do hard driving, just daily driving. But having said that, regardless of driving intensity, the quality will be evident in the long run. I was actually wondering about chamfered edges…but that is not likely a feature offered on TUTU brakes.
I was just checkin the KVR site out… prices seem reasonable. Thanks again for the help.
Anyone know how to tell a real brembo rotor from a fake then? I got my rotors on ebay. Same deal it was a dude with a machine shop who buys brembo blanks and drills and slots them. I bought from him because he confirmed with me they are real brembos and he has a cnc program do the work. So i just bought the 30mm slotted and zink plated and drilled to 4 bolt. But my rotors came in a brembo box and have a brembo logo stamped in the side edge of the rotor. I would recommend not buying drilled rotors other then from brembo or they will crack on you.
i have brembo blanks on the front of my car, cant remember where i got them from though. i’ve had them for 2 years with not a single issue and i brake pretty hard pretty often.
you should realy stay away from drilled rotters if it is a daily driver, even with the chaffer on the edge it still rips your pads appart faster, slotted wont do it as bad as drilled
