Good find.

The pair of EBC disks I cracked were >£200 IIRC. Not cheap.

I've seen expensive rotors do that... due to heat when you use your brakes but wow

Looks like hub has expanded more than the hat of the brake disk - certainly something like that for that to happen.

I'm guessing Joeh can read Chinese (it may be in Japanese for all I know!)

Don't get defensive over cheap things again

I must admit i did laugh about comment in the pagids thread, about Ron getting hung up over anything that costs a few quid

P.s the title doesnt tell you what make, the brake rotors have been torn. And further down it says they are genuine parts, the rotor is genuine.

I presume OEM honda.
