the mechanic i used to go to told me that the absolute cheapest rotor he would use is centric, otherwise it's a normal brembo blank for regular cars. people would come in and ask for the cheapest possible so he would get them cut-rate chinese brand and they would come back later complaining about rusting and warping, so he stopped. he would rather lose a sale than have to deal with unhappy customers.
