Hey, Bart!
Are these the brakes you are talking about?

Is there a place to get them for less?

Hey James,

Yes, those are the rotors I have. I bought their full front/rear rotor/brake pad package for like $200 something. That IS a good price for a full set of rotors and pads. VX stock pads and rotors will run you nearly $800 from Merlin (see this thread http://vehicross.info/forums/showthr...suggest+brakes). So no, I have no idea where to get cheaper stuff!! Like I said, the rotors are good, but get stock pads.

You had a pretty firm grasp of the situation...

OEM pads are the $hizz, & cost more for a reason...they're worth it.

I agree with Master Dub, the R1 rotors are cheap, but work good, spend your money on the pads from Merlin. I don't remember what I paid, I think it was something like $90 up front and $80 for the rears, but they should last and you can never be too safe with brakes.

You guys crack me up.
Expensive OEM pads from Merlin it is then.
Am I back in compliance with the "grip 'O meter" sir dub?
Best,
