I purchased my rotors via Ringwood auto parts for my EL. $165 for all 4, don't think they are Tiapan branded though. Much better than the ones my dad (a mechanic) supplied 18mths ago. Rob Mill's is the Ebayers name. I bought via because he allowed pick up in person and the front discs on my XB were also bought via Rob. They stop from 120+mph just fine.

The set of discs my dad go me started shuddering real quick. Robs? Still perfect I'm very happy with them.

I've also bought a few things off Rob Mills on eBay, his username is 'nrap' his prices are fairly good and the stuff he sells is also fairly good quality most of the time.
