you get the point

The ones from irotors are real brembo. I have them trust me they work really well. I got in a car accident a couple months back where my car slid into a car that turned into me. If i had these brakes i would have been able to stop.

just because its cheap doesnt mean the offer isnt good. maybe he's hooking it up for cost.
i'm not taking sides cause i dont know whether his are real or not. just saying you never know. what if they are real, you'll be biting yourself in the *** for not taking the deal.

Think about it, they get them so cheap because that is all they sell so they but it in bulk. All i can vouch for is that with my stock breaks i couldnt stop worth **** and i was locking up all the time. With my new rotors and pads i can stop 10 times faster. They also look very good and professional and come in brembo boxes and everything. So if they are fake then irotors has put a lot of time into making them look real and everything not to mention they work.

Why not email brembo and ask them if they sell cross drilled/slotted rotors? They'll tell you if irotors are fake or not.

i called brembo. they said that ya they DONT make drilled/slotted on the same rotor. you can only have 1. he said they probably bought brembo brakes and just drilled it themselves... so obviously they dont offer any warranty for them.
but then just because a company drilled it themselves doesnt mean its not good.

well according to trong's friend.. drilling them yourself.. or having a third party doing it.. takes material out of the rotor weakening the rotor..
