Aftermarket brake rotor set

I have to replace my rear pads and rotors, pretty bad gouges, and notice no talk of R1 concepts for the F30.
I've used them on my last 4 vehicles including my E92 and have been impressed each time. After a chat I received a link to the product but need to wait until Monday for pricing.
http://www.r1concepts.com/detail/pro...ive/SubModel:/
I'm wondering if anyone has picked up this kit yet. Any feedback?

Aide note:
I have the stock rotors that I'm ready to get rid of. I have the sport package and like many others none of the actual sport items, no dhp or sport brakes. What a scam especially for xdrive.

do not buy drilled rotors. Run blanks or slotted.

Agreed that's just the link they sent me. They have the option to do either.

R1 Concepts... hmm.. never heard of them before. I'm in Australia and have always used DBA (a local company that specialise on brakes) products on my last few vehicles. However they do not manufacture rotors & pads for the F30 yet.
I have just read some R1 concepts product reviews after visiting this thread and have sent them for some quote!

Are there any particular reasons why not to get drilled slotted rotors?

Looks pretty cheap compared to OEM; what's the catch?
