Looks like a good deal. I know it says new but it looks like the rotors got some scuff marks, might be takeoffs......still a pretty good deal.

Tobin At Kore3 sells the same deal for like 20 bucks more and he's reputable! Support our vendors!

Ad says new but its obvious those rotors aren't new.

Call Tobin and after your interview if you don't think he's worth an extra $100 go for it.

Step up to DBA slotted rotors and Hawk HP+ pads and you'll be impressed. My Kore3 C5 calipers with those upgrades are plenty of brake for recreational track days.

You can also look to Keith at Customworks. I got my C5 brackets, hubs, and hoses from him. Great guy to work with and great prices.
