Rotora kits had a history of cracking........Not sure if they ever dealt with that.

Ddint say they hadnt won awards or had poor service, I said they had issues with some of their products that I didnt know if they had gotten straightened out.

Ive heard of numerosu issues from multiple people on multiple vehicles, but most recently has been that the Solstice kits(which the Cobalt kit could be closely related to....) were being shipped with improperly made adapters for the calipers, and they were wearing out pads very quickly and the calipers were mounted crooked.

Calling all SOCAL GUYS AND GALS

GME is doing another day trip out at El Mirage on Sat. 11/8 to do some "stunts," have some fun with our cars in the dirt and also get some great pics and vids of it all. I will be joining them (in my dads 2wd powerstroke and my quad). So hit me up if you are interested, this is going to be a lot of fun!

heres the link to their thread about it

apparently all the corvette guys get rid of them because there are better systems out there. these look badass, and i'm sure work better on our brake cylinders. the corvette ones would have overloaded mine badly, and would have ended up being a pain in the ass.

these are also cheaper, haha
