Mick...

With a price difference that large there is probably a quality difference.  The Hawaiian rotors might be German, the Bus Depot ones from Brasil, or Italy.  Or some other 4th world country. You can't compare prices if you don't know what you are comparing.  Personally, I've always used, and sold, German and Italian.  If Brasilian rotors are anything like their brake drums, I would only use them when there was no alternative.

Find out exactly what you are getting for your money.

John

  Pholks...

  Shop here (not noted for good prices obviously) wants $119 each for front rotors for my 89 syncro (product #251 407 617Q.  Found them at bus depot for $39.95 each.  Sounds like a great deal.  Anybody tried this product from BD?  

  TIA
