ConceptZ 2-piece rotors

OptionZero · 11-29-2024, 07:46 PM

Black Friday sales everywhere, and this came to my attention:

https://conceptzperformance.com/para...-s_p_79464.php

CZP is offering 2 piece rotors “by Paragon”, sale price $675
Weight is listed at 19.6lbs

They ALSO sell “normal” Paragon rotors for us, sale price $905
https://conceptzperformance.com/para...2f_p_78357.php

Weight is listed as 19.73 lbs

Can anyone spot a difference? Other than the weight, and apparently the finish color, they seem identical which makes the price gap unusual

I sent them a message a few hours ago and received no response

Paragon is the hot **** right now for track day fun, sponsoring a local track event organizer, LightSpeed. By all accounts they are the real deal , so how is CZP undercutting the normal price by a couple hundred bucks

Curious to see what CZP says.

I read that Paragon was the sole distributor of Alcon in US. Don’t know what their relationships are now exactly.

Hypothesis: Maybe CZP needs to move inventory. CZP’s version has its name etched/engraved on the hat, and it has a different SKU than the “normal” paragon ones, that makes me think CZP has these in stock already (as in CZP had money in these inventory already), and not a drop ship. Price drop is needed for this Black Friday because Z1 has theirs at $99x for full set (that’s pre pandemic level low price). Although that’s apple vs water melon…

Paragon/Alcon front BBK is @ great price too.

I know you don’t have high opinion on GK tech, but it also offers 2 pc rotors and on sale right now.

I already got Paragons from Paragon during their sale (10%) off, which I’ll use next track season

My recommendation is the Z1 two-piece rotors.

Seen here:

They are on Black Friday sale, and you can get the front and rear for $1,000.

You also have a couple of options to choose from.

Thanks but…the Z1 rotors have been discussed extensively, and….i already have them in my car. I was looking for an upgrade.

This is my polite response
