    Question Rotors, where to buy?

    I need to replace my rear rotors. Only place I've looked is ECS Tuning but I'd like to buy locally if possible because of the shipping cost. My front rotors are fine so I'm only after 1 pair.
    I've been recommended Meyle rotors so if possible I'd like to get that brand.

    Forum Sponsor GSL RallySport. They have multiple brands & recommend something.

    HSY, Tooley Imports, or Imparts.

    Apparently the QLD one does.

    HSY have an outlet down there, who are worth a try.

    From the HSY website "Please note that we are suppliers to the AUTOMOTIVE WHOLESALE & TRADE industry ONLY. We DO NOT RETAIL our products."

    Can't buy from them either and GSL Rallysport were more expensive, unless those were prices for pairs?

    I've heard conflicting stories, but I'm a trade customer so it makes no difference for me.

    Ended up just going to Burson Auto Parts while I was waiting for wheel balance and alignment to be done.
    They supply DBA rotors. Had them place an order for me, $200 for two and will arrive tomorrow. Slightly more expensive than ECS but a whole lot quicker.
    Does that sound like a fair price?
