Brake rotor replacement
Anyone use https://brakeperformance.com to get rotors and pads? Thoughts? Prices seem very good and lifetime warranty against warping and cracking on Crossdrilled/slotted and dimpled/slotted rotors.

I used them 7 or 8 years ago. I put dimpled and slotted rotors with low dust pads on all 4 wheels of my 2003. The set worked good and seemed affordable. After a couple years of use, the front developed a rumble. It didn't feel like pulsing from a warped rotor, I was certain I had a wheel bearing going bad. Jack up the wheels and try to wiggle the tires and everything was tight. I put on all new flat rotors and pads from Autozone and the rumble was gone. It was something with the dimpled and slotted rotors. I never towed with them, really never had a need for them, it was just an affordable "performance" set. For my needs, I won't buy them again. I'll stick with stock style rotors.
BTW, I remember trying to cross reference the part numbers on the brake pad boxes and it all pointed to Chinese stuff.
