Default Anyone used Blau Rotors?

Need to replace all 4 rotors/pads. I don't track the car and not looking for BBK. Debating to just go OEM replacement or do minor upgrade. was looking at 2 options if I go aftermarket:

1) Stoptech Stage 2

2) Blauparts Orbital Rotors - http://www.blauparts.com/proddetail....od=D2B2117%2DA

I've been researching the stoptechs, but haven't seen much regarding the Blau's on the boards.

Price differences adding in the Motul fluid and SS brake lines is going to be around $200 less for Blau.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Not for nothing, but I have these on the car now, and have for +/- 10k probably, and I love them.

People may knock them for price, and the fact that they are from ebay, but they are the best I have had on a TT yet. I had stockers on a previous TT and zimmermans on this one before these, and I must say, these provide good feel, linear braking, and the best part of all...

NO BRAKE DUST!

Just food for thought.

More on topic though, have not had experience with Blau rotors, but have heard nothing but good things about Stoptech...

Default Have Blau orbital slotted rotors

I have them on all 4 wheels. They are much better than the stock rotors. They provided quicker stops and have not warped and show no signs of wear after 40k miles. They are a good value for the money but of course not as good as StopTech. I would recommend them as a low cost alternative to OEM rotors. Plus the orbital slotting makes them look better than plain rotors.
