go out and drive your car....the rust will go away after your first brake application....

Completely normal bro. Now are you talking about the outer edge of the rotors (vents) or the center (hub) or the actual contact portion? The rotors are made from iron which easily oxidizes and will show surface rust.

On my 3000GT I purchased aftermarket zinc coated cross drilled rotors. The zinc coating prevents the oxidation of the exposed iron. I thought Infiniti actually used a zinc coated rotor because mine have not discolored like they have on my previous cars.

Re: Brake Discs?

also, when you're washing your car (with normal, not wax added soap), wipe the disks.

now i keep my wheels clean, but when i wash the car, always give the wheels a good bath. between the wheels, brakes and wheel wells, that take up more time than the rest of the car.
