Never had problems w napa premiums and ive probably had 10 sets on 5 cars, and no im not joking. They are very good rotors.

Did you actually measure them on a lathe with a dial Guage before you used them? Did you go through the proper burnishing procedure? Also anyone who knows anything about rotors know that they don't warp. They get high and low spots usually from not burnishing them properly.

I put on a set of napa ultra premium rotors about a year and a half ago. This was the third pair of rotors I would have been installing due to warped rotors. The other two pair I bought were the cheap advance auto set and a mid level autozone set. Both ended up warping extremely fast. These napa rotors have been great. No warping yet.
