Default NEED YOUR OPINION ON EBAY BRAKES!

Hey I was looking at these brakes and saw that they were cryogenically engineered with hawk HPS pads. The rotors are from a brand named “edge” and I’m wondering if they are a respectable brand or not. I’ve heard never buy brakes off e-bay but these don’t look that bad.

I understand that they are for the 92-94 100 series but they also have some for the A4.

Your opinion is welcome and encouraged.

Thanks, Dan

Dont buy brakes from ebay. If you want cheaper brakes, get some brembo stock replacement rotors from ecstuning and some decent ceramic pads from there also.

Iheard Hawk HPS are great pads. I'm just curious about the rotors.

+1 for cincytt's idea but how bout an upgrade to bigger brakes? if the parts are competitive, they wouldn't be selling it on ebay where people go for cheap stuff.
