Just checking the AZ net site, the AIMCO (white box Chinese) rotors are
going for $36, at least here in SoCal. They were a bargain at $27 before,
IMHO. Now, well, the price is just ok. But I have to say I've never had
much luck in turning rotors; they seem to warp again soon. I just replaced
the factory rotors on my '95 with these AIMCO ones along with a set of PFCM
pads. After a good hot breakin, they are perfect. The dust shows up on the
chrome wheels but easy to clean. Highly recommended.
