HOLY crap what a difference in stopping power now ..
Guy from the club told me about these brakes and rotors and swore by them..

That's the link if anyone is looking for brakes.


I had a 10% off cupon that came in the boxes, but it's gone ..

anyone else have these ?
Now all I need is new rims to have those exposed more

btw, that's saw dust on my caliper, I made a custom woofer box and that stuff flew all over the place lol


EDIt: forgot to ask a question.. Is it normal to have a small chirp from new rotors ? I know the instructions that came with them
said it would sound like a grinding noise or like sandpaper for about 10 days or so..
The chirp isn't loud at all, and it only happens on a slow roll. Let's say I would just drive at like 3-5 mph ..

Being slotted/holed you will have some additional sound like you are talking about, it has to do with air escaping from the slots and holes i believe.

Also, you should realize that the rotors make NO difference at all in the stopping power you are feeling. The new pads are all that are helping you with stopping power.

Last note: you might experience alot more brake dust also as some people have complained about that with the ceramic pads

I don't know if it has anything to do with the holes. it's not a whistle sound. it's more like a chirp. like a metal touching slightly on something.

as far as stopping power, the pads that came with these rotors are ceramic. Can't say I ever had a ceramic pair before, so I'm sure you are right.
But man o man these things are awsome

I have a set of rotors like that if anyone is interested. 1000 miles on the if that. Just switched over to Brembo's. You can still see the machine marks on the face.

Thats my boy! Never use them brakes!


OE is ceramic, I think its all in your foot, lol. (vs seat of the pants)
New stopping surfaces may have some effect.

PM'd ya... what you need for em? Brand or where bought? My wife is about to kill me, just bought an H pipe from Brenspeeds sale...

if mellow has the same ones, I think that link I posted at the top should help you. They are really cheap, but really good. I couldn't pass up on that deal.

nice man looks good, and from what i have herd the holes and slots help release pressure for the gases which help the pads grap better so the whole set up sould be better glad you like congrats
