ebay item, what do you think?

hello, earlier I posted a message regarding brakes/rotors... I posted this already but nobody replied i think because thie thread got moved to "brakes" forum.

Anyway,I found this on ebay, located in toronto, canada ... Just wanted your opinion on these, I think for the price they are not bad. What do you think? I have never heard of the brand...

2 front + 2 rear rotors for $129.99 + 59.99 for front and rear pads

Brakes are one thing on your car that you don't want to cheapen out on. You sort of need them...to stop.

PS - link doesn't work.

+1, please don't put $190 worth of brakes on your car, you're risking your life... and possibly other innocent drivers.

oh here we go again...hey if your life is worth barely 200 bucks then do it, more room for me to drive around. do yourself a favor and spend a little more for known brake products that have been proven and not some cheap a$$ chinese crap that is barely worth 20 bucks

Would not buy any discount car parts off of ebay as a general rule of thumb. Actually I wouldn't buy ANY car parts off of ebay because of fear of it being fake or a replica or misrepresented in the auction, etc. Just save your pennies and get the real deal.

Are brakes really necessary for stopping? Couldn't you pull a Fred-Flinstone and drag your feet alongside the car?

That's possibly one of the dumbest posts of the year. ^^

If the previous answers didn't steer you away from cheap ****, buy them. But don't come crying to us that they broke, you wrecked your car, or worse. You have a lot of growing up to do.
