Beware BrakeWorld.com rotors

You may have seen posts on this already. If not, beware of deceptive and fraudulent marketing at BrakeWorld.com in US.

They advertise Brembo, cross drilled & slotted brake rotors for the X-Type, complete with a picture of Brembo rotors, box and logo. Problem is, Brembo does not make such a rotor.

When asked about it, they replied "despite the picture we do NOT carry these rotors in brembo, they are bradi italy rotors, they are excellent quality rotors and the drilling pattern depicted on our web site is exaclty (sic) how the rotors look, give us a call if we can help or answer your questions."

Nowhere does the web site give any indication that these are not genuine Brembo products. At the least, this is dishonest, and at worst, they could be selling a dangerously marginal quality product.

Suggest you ask hard questions before purchasing any upgrade products,
especially those where your safely is involved.

Mel-

You need to grow up. I have used Brakeworld for 2 yrs and they are first rate and honest.
BRAKEWORLD IS THE BEST INTERNET SITE FOR ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS ON THE INTERNET. PLUS, THEY GUARANTEE THEY HAVE THE MOST COMPETITIVE PRICES.
