02 Altima Brake question
I was looking to replace my wifes Brakes & Rotors on her '02 Altima. I was looking into to the Ebay route and some of the companies are R1Concepts, R irotors, CBR (Custom Brake Rotors) and Rotorwork. Does anybody have pros/cons on these or other recommendations. Any and all would be greatly appreciated. Trying to save some coin but also give it some style as well.
Thanks Todd"Champagne taste on a beer pocket book."

When I replaced my Acura TL rotors I purchased then from Ebay and never had a problem (2years) , I just made sure they were Brembo's and from a vendor that had been on ebay for awhile with a good rating. i dont remeber the name but they were from Texas

Be VERY careful with who you buy from- there are 'lesser quality' rotors being sold as upgraded units. The main differences are materials and finish machining. Some of teh finishes barely meet industry standards and need to be turned prior to use.
90% of the vendors on Ebay are just resellers- they don't stock them, they don't touch them, they just get thier % when they have them drop-shipped to you. Save yourself some heartache & get a phone # to talk to- and get something in writing that says you'll get REAL Brembos (or whatever you choose).

Yeah, I kind of changed my mind on them and decided to get the Powersolt Cryo Rotors and some Hawk Pads for her car.
