Anyone Know How Good These Brakes Are?

eBay.ca: Dodge Viper Front & Rear Cross Drill SLOT BRAKE ROTORS (item 220068587997 end time 10-Jan-07 11:46:55 EST)

eBay.ca: Dodge Viper [92-02] Front & Rear Drill Slot Brake Rotor (item 300067336347 end time 10-Jan-07 13:45:03 EST)

Is this a good replacement for my 2000 Viper? (Non ABS).

I am going to need new brakes this summer, but don't want junk. Just good value. Not racing.

Seems really cheap. Are these junk?

Comments appreciated

I'm VERY happy with these. I tried a few others on ebay and was NOT HAPPY

eBay Motors: Dodge Viper Front & Rear Cross Drill Slot Brake Rotors (item 170068650767 end time Feb-07-07 13:17:22 PST)

EXTREMELY cheap but GREAT quality (for the money)
very good cad plating and nice countersunk cross drilling
I've gotten 3 sets from them and am VERY happy with the overall quality

FWIW no these aren't anywhere near the genIII upgrade or even the eradispeeds, just a great option for looks and mod. street *not track* use
cadium plating looks great even after multi washing (no rusting) like cheaper cad plating

Thanks guys. So they work but not high end. Looking for something that won't rust so i'll be getting something that's plated.

Thanks again

How do they compare to the stock set-up (stopping, wear, noise, dust etc.)?

stopping= better
wear= better
noise? all x drilled are distinctively a small amount louder (almost inaudible)
dust=no change w/ stock pads (my experience anyway)

bottom line great upgrade, Highly recommended
