Many fellas on here have had good success with the Ebay Brakemotive kit decent build quality without breaking the bank - haven't checked the prices lately, but for my M45, IIRC about $250 for a complete set of cross-drilled and slotted ones with pads

I got the Brakemotive rotors last year. $167 total front and back slotted and drilled rotors and pads. Next time around I'll stick with the OEM rotors and pads. Too much brake dust. If you don't mind the dirt all over your wheels then Brakemotive is the way to go. They stop your car just fine.

Pedsemdoc and reggiebrown40 thanks...yea I was looking for a good quality with minimal dust and noise. Thanks for the info!

No problem, HotBoyM37. The rotors work fine, no ssquealing noises. It just drives me crazy with the dirt I have to clean off. Not sure of other folks experience with them but the savings wasn't worth it.

I have used Brakemotive for years and had no issues that you might get from aftermarket systems like warping, etc. I haven't noticed much brake dust from any of the sets I've used, but I reckon that's because I also have MGP caliper covers. I got a set in black and bought Infiniti caliper decals on Ebay so they look like they came with the car from the factory. They supposedly force the brake dust toward the road instead of the wheels. Maybe that's true cuz I bought them for my 07, used them for two years and now they have been on my 09 for 3 years, still look new and fabulous. They usually come with goofy-looking fake bolts, but if you cal them, you can get them with no engraving at all, just plain high gloss color. Front and back were less than $200 but they have lasted for 5 years now and even the Ebay decals look new.

I'm running the Project Mu pads; really happy with them. No dust or noise and they bite hard when needed.

I ordered Brake Motive, when I got them they were Stop Tech rotors and pads. I think they wholesale them for so tech. I looked up my exact set on stop Tech site and they were about $400+. Igor the whole set on eBay for $250

They look great to
