Default Avalon Motorsports is now offering SP-Performance rotors...

Avalon Motorsports is now an exclusive SP-Performance rotors dealer.

"SP Performance is a manufacturer of performance rotors. Since it's inception, SP has quietly become a large player in the performance rotor market place. With unique innovations and manufacturing techniques, SP has become a leader in its technology of cross-drilling, slotting, diamond slotting, and cross-drilling & slotting.

The process begins by selecting only the finest quality, OEM approved rotors. Each rotor is then studied and analyzed to ensure that surface quality, vent design, and finished surfaces meet or exceed our strict standards. The pattern is then created with a computer design program, based on the specific application. Next, the rotors are precisely cut using CNC machines to ensure that the highest consistent quality can be achieved."

SP-Performance rotors are also zinc coated to ensure long lasting corrosion protection. Nickel plating is available upon special request.

Please contact us for pricing.

Default I'm confused: what, aside from some turning and plating of OE rotors are they doing?

not sure where the added value comes from as they do not manufacture (per your comments) and it appears they turn (slots?) and what else?


Does it justify the increased cost?

Default in my experience, the coatings last a few heat cycles at best...

No problem. These are very competetive with Brembo's, ATE and P-slot at good prices

Default That's all I needed to hear...

Default Very cool. You should also consider the S8 rear upgrade...

We will assemble a rear kit including SP Perf slotted S8 (280mm) rotors with the S8 rear carriers. Should be nasty!!!
