I have heard about them, and they seem like they make a very nice product.

I have their front BBK and rear 13" oem upgrade and they are awesome. I have been very happy with them. For the price they can't be beat.

If I was to change my OEM brembo rotors, am I suppose to order the performance rotor upgrade or am I suppose to order the two-piece rotor? Thanks

The one thing I don't like about their 4-piston front 13" BBK is that the rotors are only as thick as OEM, 24mm, whereas the competition such as Stoptech or AP have 32mm thick rotors. That 8mm of rotor thickness really adds a great deal of thermal capacity which is needed for tracking. But I guess it doesn't matter though if you're only buying the brakes for looks or you don't track that hard.

Glad you like them...
Sorry I missed your first post.
I've been running RB rotors for about a year now & they're great.
