    If you dont have anything positive to add bugger off
    Seem pretty salty for someone, who, quoted by you in the past "has no affiliation or connection to the business". I stand by what i said they are there to make money and by telling you something to con you into a sale is something everyone does. And if i contacted the person is he going to tell me exactly where it is manufactured and how he goes about it, i highly doubt it as that is how he makes money and is not going to give his secrets away, as then someone else could go do what he did and import their own brakes from China and start a business selling them, you could even get them grooved in China and sell them cheaper then he does.

    Glad you feel so passionate about them, me on the other hand i don't believe everything i read or hear unless fair evidence has been provided. Which so far has been a couple people and I really like them. Maybe if you wanna help your business friend, sorry "non affiliated business friend" bring some actual facts to the table instead of telling everyone they are so far off the mark and we need to get the facts.

    I am in no way affilliated with the Delios company nor a business friend FYI .

    I and many others on here are running these brakes and are more than impressed to say the least.

    You and the other knockers have no idea what you are on about as you all are way off the mark your just digging for the sake of a cheap shot or to get your post count up .

    Just a bunch of trolls not willing to think out side the square with nothing positive to add .

    Like i said the evidence is already on this forum use your search function or ask somewhere else and weep precious .

    Impressed compared to what?
    I am Not knocking the Delios brand at all But as I will be replacing ALL my rotors/pads by the end of this year and I will be wanting the Best and not the most cost efficient parts fitted in something as important as the braking system on my D2a.
    Is the Delios product "Better" and "Safer" than the genuine Landrover rotors and pads?

    I can fully understand buying cheaper quality items that are Not Mission Critical like winches, spotlights and snorkels I have done so myself and the products that I have bought ARE good value for money But my life (and others) doesn't depend on them like they do with the brakes fitted to the truck.
    A point in case is my 4WDSupercentre winch, Yes it does perform as advertised and it is a good strong winch BUT is it as good and as reliable as an equivalent Warn winch?
    I take your word for it that the Delios rotors and pads are Good But I ask you once again are they BETTER and more Reliable/SAFER than the Genuine Landrover replacement rotors and pads?

    Delios are not the cheapest out there for reasons i have stated previously they actually market as a performance brake package but some here dont get it nor want to believe it.

    In my honest opinion Delios G35 series Carbon Avantage (Slotted) are superior to your standard rotor`s by a country mile.

    If anyone is serious about brake durability these fit the plate as do some other brands all at different prices and quality .

    At the end of the day it is your choice and as you and others have stated they are not racing cars nor drive fast but they are also content to upgrade motors , suspension , Tyres , Remap`s and tow heavy things , ect but are happy with their standard brakes so fine stick with what you know if that tickles your fancy.
    Nobody is forcing anyone to upgrade their brakes here
    I am and have defended my choice and others for our choice but continually have to deal with 5 minute experts that no nothing about the brand or of the manufacturer .

    Good luck with your choice

    You have my opinion for what it is worth .

    What are you running brand wise ?

    Now i have no affiliation or financial interest`s in this business or business`s but i am friend`s with the owners

    From here Brake package so you either are friends or your not doesn't matter i guess.

    Evidence still the same a few people and I have used them, use the search function (hard evidence that)

    Could search for DBA rotors be a tonne of happy customers there too, actually probably more worldwide and car wide.

    "You and the other knockers have no idea what you are on about as you all are way off the mark your just digging for the sake of a cheap shot or to get your post count up" Just interested in what your qualifications in the field are, or what entitles you to have your opinion but everyone else is wrong or got no idea.

    Anyways take care hope your brakes fulfill your every desire

    Well, prior to reading this post, I had already bought a set of DBA rotors (non-slotted) and Bendix 4WD pads.

    I based that decision on feedback from this, and other forums around the world. Much of that feedback was claiming equivalent or better brake performance/feel compared to the original factory setup. Of course, that's all subjective. Any properly fitted set of new brakes will feel like an improvement over the old ones.

    Many posters had, however, done many miles towing large vans or floats/car trailers and the overwhelming feedback was very positive. The only complaints I found were from a couple of people who had gone for the cheapest pads they could get, to go with their new DBA rotors. Beats me why you would spend $250 on rotors, then try to skimp a few bucks on pads? Guess there's no accounting for folks!
