Bembo front drums

The title should be brembo not bembo lol



Summit racing has brembo front drums on sale for under 40 bucks normally over 90 each. The quality is very nice they come painted and have very nice machined surfaces. I know it's not in vogue to keep front drums but anyone who needs them should buy these the quality is better than any off the shelf drum I have seen from an auto parts store. I just got a pair for my 72 .

Where are they made?

I've had good luck with Brembo rotors, the more recent of which were made in China, and boxed in Italy. (Like Chinese carry-out from an Italian restaurant.)

Brembo is generally good stuff, and I've never heard of them making drums, but F-85's question is a good one.

Something to keep in mind for those with drums, who are rebuilding, though.

Made in china but it's the best set of drums I have ever seen. They look identical to o.e. drums. I might ad the current cleaarance price is much cheaper than the cheapest napa front drums or even autozone. Don't know how long they will stock these but since it's on clearance I'm assuming they aren't moving like twinkies after hostess went under.
