They were cheaper than brembos but not bottom of the barrel, about $110/ea before shipping.

Odd, just read the thread - probably a really old batch of Centric ones. I have heard they had some QC issues initially.

I had a set of Centrics on my S4, no issues.

Wait, you paid $110 each for a Centric rotor?

WOW

I had centric rotors in the past, they warp easy and are not worth the DIRT CHEAP price tag that usually comes with it.

I believe what I said was essentially 'I have not observed any demonstrable difference.' You said you had. I said, okay; demonstrate. And I believe you then put a lampshade on your head and stood in the corner. ;P

Don't make me hit you with my cane.

These are low end Stoptech rotors. Centric is the parent company but yeah, I guess I paid $110 for a centric rotor.

Price really depends on the car. Economy of scale and what not.

Glad it is getting resolved at no cost to you.

Centric has several levels of rotors.
Rotors don't "warp" by themselves most of the time its the driver and/or the car setup that cause most.

Wow, you must hyper-mile big time to get that kind of wear on the rotors..

Nope, just do not slam on the brakes and use your engine braking!

Kinda tough to do that with an automatic...
