Custom Made Brake Rotors

I found this company today while looking for performance rotors for a X5M. Give them a look. Tons of options and custom coatings available. And they won't break the bank either.

Did you order these brakes HooningB2G ? Something tells me you are prepping your 135i for the 'Ring.

I didn't see anything that specified hub material, so these are probably 1 piece steel. That would be a step down from OEM.

They are 1 piece steel, but so are stop techs. Dackelone no I didn't order them but yes I'm prepping for the ring. I ordered the BMW performance rotors and EBC yellow stuff pads.

Nice find! I know Adam's is really popular in the Audi/VW scene. Maybe you can find some reviews on the Audi/VW forums

On there website, if you click on the "about us" link, they have several links to race teams who use their rotors on audi race cars. My friend ordered a full set of their rotors, pads and stainless lines for his X5M ($2200) and once they arrive I will be able to give an in depth review!

Yea they are, and you can run them at the cost of handling due to increased unsprung weight.

The only benefit being decreased purchase price.

It's a trade off.

Nice, look forward to the write up

I've been back and forth on whether or not to buy their products for some time.
