that price is so cheap, it doesn't leave any excuse to retain the stock rear drums

That is a sweet price. I have a new set of non-slotted ( stock ) rotors that I wish were those. Good find.

By the way they describe them it sounds like one don't need any mods to install them. For example, you can still use the stock calippers. Is that right?

200 for all sides, NOT bad at all because I thought they were usually about 150 a wheel?

Are these worth the investments?

I try to go cheap wherever plausible, but I can't see myself trusting such cheap brakes. I guess when someone else (one of the people here) tells me they're good in three or so years, after using them that long, I'd be able to trust them.
