Looking for good Bumper Plates

I am looking to upgrade my home gym with some bumper plates. I recently bought some cheap ones from the local sporting goods store, but the very first time I used them they started to fall apart. I returned them and I am now looking into ordering some bumper plates online.

I have it narrowed down to a couple brands:

Troy VTX Bumper plates
Lynx Econ Hi- Temp
Pendlay V2 Econ

All three of these fall around the same price point for a 260LB set (about $400-$430) with shipping included.

My biggest concerns are quality (I want them to last, hopefully for years to come), and not damaging my garage floor.
I know that you are not supposed to drop the 10's, 15's because they might taco on you.

Anyone recommend one of these above the other? any one recommend a better brand than these? or a cheaper place to buy them?
