Brembo Sucks - check this quality ....

OK, so after some research and inquiries about which rotors to go with, I decide to buy the Centric
Premium rotors but they were no where to be found and out of stock everywhere So I settled
for the Brembos from Brakewarehouse.com. I ordered 2 fronts and 2 rears. They sent me
2 Brembo fronts and 2 ATE rears . In the beginning, I was upset because I didn't get what
I ordered however, after a close inspection of both brands the ATE appear to be a better quality than the
Mexican made Brembos (no offense intended to anyone). I'm fine with the ATE now but I'm pissed because
the Brembos are made $hitty quality.
Not sure about this but the inside disk is thinner than the outside disk !! Is this by design? or are
they really that bad? Please take a look at the pics and respond with your comments. I need to figure out what
to do and need to finish this pending brake job. If they are flawed, then I have to ship them back for replacement.
Your comments are appreciated. Sorry about the size of the pics, I thought they autoresize but they didn't and I don't know how to do it ...
