Front Brake Rotors
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I currently shopping around for OEM front brake rotor. Can anyone tell me where I could find them for the best price? The cheapest I have found them for is $342 a piece from eeuroparts. Thanks, Roy |

Awesome thanks!
I order some ebay ones and the quality was horrible. One rotor had over 2mm diffrence in thickness from the front to back. I am returning those and going with oem. |

Curious which eBay ones did you have issues with. The ones we've picked up have been going good so far. Barely heavier than stock too.

As soon as I have secured my refund I will let you guys know. If you want to know sooner than that just PM me. I shipped them back yesterday so I’m hoping to have this resolved by next week.

Why won't you just post who you returned? You think they're trolling the forum to find you? Lol

Probably for the same reason anyone replaces parts on their car with things that are not oem. Oem doesn't "always" mean better.

Respectfully...Not convinced! . Maybe the mods and what not have impacted that particular vehicle. Or just a bad set of rotors. I have never had a warped rotor in any of my 5 BMWs. Had them all the time in my Cadillac Escalade (constant brake fade...even coming down speed bumps!!), and my Audi A4 brakes were weak.
But seriously, I would be interested in what part of your BMW would be better served with an aftermarket part? I struggle with that. Maybe that is worth a separate post. |

No one is saying BMW produces shit components (unless you want to talk about the rubber and plastics bmw uses in its suspension and engine bays cuz yes its shit) but it's not the best which is why many aftermarket and third party manufactures exist. Cmon man. A little less fanboy and a little more realism will go a long way.

While there are certainly aftermarket items that are superior to OEM out there, my comment was only directed at this particular set of rotors.
