R1 Drilled and Slotted Rotors are on!!
just got the R1 Concepts rotors on, ive got them on my caddy and now the jags got them.
they really look great and R1 Concepts had great rotors and great prices.
they bite really hard, but havent pushed them yet just to allow them to break in properly.
its cheaper to order these from california and pay shipping and import taxes than it is to buy OEM rotors in canada. it cost $320 plus $20 for taxes for 4 rotors and ceramic pads.
ill get some better pics in a little... she just went to wash the car.

Wheels look great. From past experience make sure the lug nuts are torqued properly. Almost all after-market rotors are less beefy than original Jag's. Improper tightening with an impact wrench in the hands of an over zealous tech can warp and ruin your new rotors. Some of those guns can put out 3 times the amount of force needed. As gun is used pressure changes, resulting in uneven tightening. Jack

torque wrench is over rated, i have to do it at work but none of my personal cars never failed me with impact gun. i feel you don't need them unless you are doing serious engine work my 88 benz 300e had 256k miles on it when i wrecked it never had any major issues and never used a torque wrench on it.
