Based on my research so far, my guess is that their rotor program is sourced by Fremax.

I was just going to say that the rotors posted in the thread I posted above appear to be Fremax rotors.
But, Fremax is an OE supplier, perhaps not for that application, but they are an OE brake rotor supplier. I would take a Fremax rotor over a Chinese rotor any day of the week.
Also, are you basing your assumption on just that one thread? I would suspect that not every application of B/A rotor comes from the same supplier.
I will also say that sending vague questions to parts companies often gets vague answers. Whenever I've asked about specific part numbers and countries of origin, all the companies I've emailed have given me straight answers. I've probably emailed parts companies about 20 times total and I think every time I received the country of origin info I was looking for.
But the one or two times I've asked vague questions without a specific part number, I've received vague, useless answers.
