Looking for feed back on the Wholsale direct brakes & rotors package. $299 sounds too good to be true. Anyone have these? I would like to hear some feedback about them. 
Thanks,
Dave

delivery was terrible, and the center drill was a little beat up on some of my holes. i cleaned them up with some sandpaper. other than that i have 500+ miles on them and they are working out great.

I have 4000-5000 miles on mine, I love em. When I first got them I could wash the car and they wouldn't rust at all!!!! After a little while though they're like the rest of them, a bit of surface rust when you wash the car, I guess that's to be expected. So far I would say they're a good deal, but more time will tell. I don't drive the car much, so I'm sure there's someone out there with more miles on a set than me.

I got my set in the mail yesterday. Shipping and delivery was great. The rotors themselves look great too. I'm putting them on this weekend, then I'll be driving about 8-10 hours roundtrip the following weekend, so I'll get back with impressions after I've driven on them for a while. I'll be doing the rotors and pads right off, but wont be doing the brake fluid swap for a few more weeks.
So are these WDP rotors, or are WDP just selling them? Who actually makes these rotors? Are the cross drilled holes casted in or drilled afterwards?

Thankyou Josh For showing your immature attitude, tough guy . My post was in no way directed against you or any one posting in this thread. But I am glad you are aware that their drive way jewelery and offer no benefit braking what soever.

Brake ***** suck
lol, I have the wholesale direct rotors and I'm very pleased with my jewelry. They look great, maybe even better than some of the "real" brake kits that cost thousands.
(If it was all about performance and to hell with looks... we would all be in chevy monzas, ford pintos and dodge darts ratting big cubes and fat meats up under those tiny fenders... IMO)
crappy pic attached... night in the garage but you get the idea.

Had them for about 4 thousand miles. Can't comment on the pads as I went with Quietstops. No complaints and have had a few hard stops. They will fade with consistent hard use like normal, as they are not much of a performance upgrade, but cool down quicker than stock...I think.
Delivery can be slow however but if something goes wrong Brian will make it right.
