New Rotors

[1969mustang]

New Stainless Rotors arrived today, replacing worn out, cast rotors.

Where did you get them (Spiegler?) and what was the cost?

Rotors, supplied by Wolfgang, not had the invoice yet

really good finish on the rotors, straight fit onto original carriers , you need the pads to go with the stainless.

… very strange: “Spieglar” instead of “Spiegler” on the rotors??? Ciao, Gert

Nice catch, Gert! Chinese rip-off?

That's not meant as a negative. I once needed new rotors double quick, in desperation I ordered on Ali Express. Rotors arrived in 3 days, just in time for the Bikers Classics at Spa, fit and finish were perfect. Identical to "Braking" brand items! Worked great and despite fears of immediate warping, held up well to the abuse of several track days.

Wouldn't be at all surprised if Braking, Beringer, Spiegler, et al had their stuff produced in China.

PFM at the IoM did rotors for me (I sent them an original PFM as they no longer stocked them so needed a pattern) - must be some kind of iron as they rust. Charged £130 per rotor.

I purchased a set of identical-looking rotors from Spiegler in Germany some time back.
They have Spiegler (spelt correctly) SBT02 on them. Haven't run them yet as the Jota restoration isn't finished.
They look okay, but are much thinner than the originals. Don't let your brake pads wear down too far...
Personally, I think the Australian MetalGear rotors are the ones to go for, have had several sets.
They look original, work perfectly wet or dry.

Hi,
Who sells these rotors in the UK?

Cheers Russ.

Are they floating or semi-floating? Is heat warping an issue if they're very thin and solidly mounted?
