Brake discs R1 Concepts or OEM Volkswagen

Ive got r1s on 3 of my cars and love them. Put out a decent amount of brake dust so either learn to live with it or youll be finger banging your wheels to keep them clean. Working on set #2 on my camry, lasted about 40k miles but i drive hard. Handled well thru the mountains

I went with R1 Concepts for the front..thats with slotted and drilled rotors and pads and im happy with them. I've run them about 6k miles so far and no issues.

I was more than happy with my R1 Rotors at Sonoma 2 weeks ago. I felt a bit of pulsing when I got the brakes especially hot, but I never had any real fading.

I’ve ran r1 concepts drilled and slotted rotors for like 3 years now with stoptech pads and never felt the need to upgrade higher than that for just dailying/spirited driving

I run r1 concept rotors with ebc red stuff pads and they work great for me

I installed R1 Concepts slotted on my 13 R/T years ago. They are better than the brakes that came from the factory.

R1 concepts has nice rotors, and they sent me dynamic friction pads that I’ve been very happy with.

I’m hesitant to give them business though because they sent me broken brake pads that were clearly abused in the warehouse, not in shipping, and refused to remedy the situation. I was furious.

If you have no interest to do anything other than normal driving r1 concepts will work. If you so much as do a little "spirited driving" they will bake and turn into crappy brownies. And refuse any type of refund even with 500 miles on them. I honestly preferred OEM. They lasted a nice long time, minimal noise, and they were actually really nice on track

I was fairly unimpressed that the brand new rotors out of the box have some surface rust. I suspect these have been on a shelf for a long time.

Am I right to be upset that I was told the rotors are warped because I went through a puddle with hot brakes? Costing me $1300 to fix!
