    1lb 11oz less each for the PF rotors. Replacement rotors and hardware $245 each. In stock. The rotors are constructed of a special high temperature alloy that has a longer service life than conventional rotor material.

    Yes they are dimples, $700 for a front set. My web pages are JPG images; I wasn't aware there was an issue viewing from iPhone, but if you are looking for brake products, I haven't created the page.

    Those rotors are not cheap, but they sure are sweet. I had the opportunity to actually touch, ok maybe fondle one that Keith was showing off. Really nice rotors!

    Guys, sorry to resurrect an old thread, but not-surprisngly the JCW Sports Brakes are now very hard to find. A friend of mine is trying to purchase them and has spoken to several vendors and dealers but has been unsuccessful. He is about ready to go the R56 brakes route, but is giving it one last shot. Anyone have any leads on where he could find a set of these? Thanks.

    People with R56s are still selling them occasionally. I found a set of calipers that were takeoffs with only a few hundred miles about six months ago for a good price. Picked up a set of stoptech/powerslot rotors and some EBC pads and I was all set. Just gotta be patient. Maybe post a "want to buy" ad for them
