aftermarket brake rotors
I've got a question.. is there a size difference between the 2001-2003 F4i and the 2004-2006 model?

I do not know anything firsthand, but I wouldn't trust non-branded ebay brand brake rotors. That's just me though. As for the size difference, I don't think so, but I have never checked. I do know that RR rotors do not work on an F4i though, if that was the case, I would have a set of Alth's on mine right now.

That's true JB, however, I would not trust necessarily that the rotor was machined perfect. Rotors have very strict tolerances for the planar surface. If it was only a piece of metal, rotors would be much cheaper then they are. Hell, if they were just a flat piece of metal, we'd all be cutting our own out and using a floating button kit. Rotors are machined very precisely for certain braking and to perform a certain way. Would you buy a no brand tire off ebay? I mean after all, it's just rubber?
Not trying to be insulting, but c'mon, rotors are not just a piece of flat metal.

RE: aftermarket brake rotors
Really? I can make a rotor out of SAE 1018 and give it to you. Let me know how it works out for you when it breaks into a few pieces while your trying to stop. Thats the secret Metallurgy is probably not decent. It would be interesting to compare the two. I wouldn't do it.
