No prob. The zinc coating is a little odd. The feedback for the seller is pretty good, but the price seems too good to be true. 4 new stock rotors will cost more than $139.00. Not to mention the cost to machine the slots and holes. I'd be cautious. You usually get what you pay for.

Anyone out there used these rotors before?

Well, rotors aren't that expensive. A few places sell the front rotors for $10 each, but I haven't found the rear ones for less than $40 each. So it sounds like a pretty good deal if it's real.

Dude, rotors for just about every other car run that much. A buddy of mine once showed up with a seized caliper, destroyed pads and rotors. Caliper and rotor ran $25 total at autozone and worked fine. What's not to trust?

You see, I really tried to find some for a couple weeks. I must have called 4 places that claimed on there website they had Cross Drilled/ Slotted rotors. So, I would call, and then ask them to ask the machinist if they could do it. All of them said no. I was pist. Only one place would make them, but they where 250.00 each. I ended up getting Power Slot rotors. Good luck.

I sure hope that picture on ebay isn't of the actual rotors you'll be getting. It'll be pretty tough to mount those babies without a place for the bearings :-)
