No ice to break. Thier catalog has pages of rotors and an order sheet for custom ones. They are not big with this new fangled internet though. Gotta give 'em a call. 800-221-1851

Re: Brembo Disk Bell Ring-Hub bolt Failure

Jim, how much were the custom ones?

I assume they offer slotted, drilled etc as well?

Re: Brembo Disk Bell Ring-Hub bolt Failure

$445 a pair with the slots. Shipping was only $23 too. $468 total to my door. If you don't want the slots you can save $16.25 per rotor. I decided to go with the slots to keep my comparison test as equal as possible.

If you get thier catalog you'll see they have an order form for custom rotors. I have a cad drawing of the PFC fronts if anyone needs them. You'll also find over half of our car in that catalog in parts.

I used to be all about supporting PAD until they f'd me.

Re: Brembo Disk Bell Ring-Hub bolt Failure

what happened with PAD....

Aren't the PFC rotors about that much (something like $260 ea.)? The Brembo rotors are low $300 each (from memory).

Re: Brembo Disk Bell Ring-Hub bolt Failure

PFC rotors are $300-$380 each plus shipping.

PAD quoted me $52/wheel for new brake hardware. I said go ahead with the order. When they arrived they were $68/wheel. I called them and they said basically TFB. They then tried to BS me and say "we pay $58 each for them and we want to make a little money". Right, like I'm a complete moron. If that is the case they should buy thier hardware from MBSbrakes.com as they have the hardware for $45/wheel. I've had excellent services from MBS and the price the quote is always what I am charged. I get my pads from them.

I would not have even shopped around for other places to get stuff for my car if this hadn't happened.

If PAD did that to me I probably wouldn't buy there again either. I just like busting Pomroy's chops.
