R1 concepts rotors anyone used?

[FenixTX717]

on my second pair on my second dsm! love them....only difference is go with a semi-metalic pad....not full metalic....i believe these rotors need a little softer pad....

i had semi metalic pads on my 1st car and stopped on a dime....

have full metalics on them now and doesn't stop as quick but still a lot better than stock

got them off ebay they are a direct swap and for the price you can't beat it!

Just wanted to let everybody know about the Tutu Auto Drilled Rotors that I put on my car last month. First.. they were cheap.. they were $150 for all four rotors (and that price is including shipping). They came out cheaper than OEM. THey look good. They get little rust spots with moisture, but as soon as you drive th car those go away. They stop pretty good. They aren't anything dramatic, but they are good. They seem to be holding up very well. I even took the car to the track this weekend and they held up fine.. The paint that it comes with chips a little bit on the eges of the rotors, but it's very minor. All in all they were good for the money. They were cheaper than OEM, but a small upgrade.

In the end these are good for anyone who needs new rotors, but wants something that's a little bit of an upgrade. Can't beat em when they're $150 for all four rotors, shipped.

I also have the rotor setup, but I also bought reman. calipers for all four corners. the install was easy and they work very well. im actually selling the whole setup only because im parting out the car. i only used them for a couple of months. when i get another dsm, i will more than likely get the same setup.

I have them on my car, they actually look good and reasonably priced.

I got them with the pads but I still am using the ceramics that I just got a few months ago. They seem to be a good company, and I got to pick them up directly since they are not to far from where I work.

They are same diameter as stock (they also sell OEM style rotors) and no issues on install. I probably did them in 3 hrs with airtools and a jack.

I have these and love them. So far no problems with them what so ever. I'll give y'all more info a few months down the line. Here are some pics.

Artago,

You got the rotors installed in the wrong orientation. The slots/holes should be pointing towards the direction of rotation.

the direction of the slots don't matter bro. The R1 is the same as every other chinese rotor. It's not directional.
