Yes the quality blows, and yes my stupid *** put the rear rotors on backwards. And pardon the filthy rims, brake dust does that to wheels.

I put the rear brake rotors on backwards from the front. I have also recognized that axxis metal masters not only make craploads of brake dust, but they are NOISY.

Those things where they present you with two pictures that look identical, and you're supposed to find what's different.

It's unfortunately to hear that those pads are noisy, I was thinking about them when I put new pads on in the spring.

What about the quality of the ebay ones "blows" as you put it. Would you advise to steer clear of the ebay ones then?

No the ebay ones are very high quality, I dont see why people think so low of them. But yes the axxis metal masters are kind of noisy.

Any additional info on these rotors? How has the wear been on them? Warping? Any cracks? Are they lighter than the stock pieces? Let us know! Thanks!

I have had mine on for 1-2K and I have no sign of warping or cracks.
The wear looks about the same (if not better) as the stock rotors.
