You just can't expect a replacement disc that sells for small change (I've seen $15 MGB rotors) to represent decent quality compared to OEM. Problem is that most owners won't pay for OEM, assuming th

This is true. I have seen it first hand on my Subaru. It was prone to disc warping when the tires were changed. After having them warped by a tire store, I had to make sure that when anyone changed o
