There are new Chinese brake rotors on the market, and the link below has a good
picture to show the difference in this casting. The machining is good, but
someone decided that it wasn't worth the time to create a mold to produce a
copy of the nicely sculptered British casting. The result is a much heavier
rotor which I chose not to use on my car, and was surprised to read that they
are being sold by some of the normal suppliers of LBC parts. YMMV, I'm sure
they will work fine for some drivers and there is a big difference in price,
but it is good to be aware of the difference.
