UPS guy gave me a big box today!

Looky Looky:




R1 Concepts: Cross-Drilled / Slotted Rotors!

Based on visual inspection, the quality is decent! I'll compare them to the stock rotors once I have them off. Only thing I find a little strange is on the back of the bottom two rotors, near the hub, it's not all silver and shiny ... it's a little black, almost charred looking.

Hawk HPS pads coming early next week.

AND

Hopefully by the end of next week ... "Dun Dun Dun" ... more to come!

I think mines are the same size as stock but they are lighter weight. I think I paid just ove 400 for mines on eBay but there was a group buy that had them for less.

Because he probably paid less than $400 for all four rotors and pads.

I wonder if you can paint the center, where the bolts go through, with caliper paint to help prevent rust.

R1 gave me a good deal on these things.

But here's a picture of what I'm talking about:


If you compare the one on the RIGHT to the one of the LEFT, you can see that there's a lot more "dirt" or whatever that black ring of 'crap' is. Not where the hub is ... but one ring up.

Is it corrosion? or is this fine?
