My Rotors Have Arrived.
#46
Lookin good black. I ran with a tricked out newer Audi S4 over the weekend. His stop and go ability was a strong plus as we carved through the back roads. Considering the weight of our GSs, he should've left me. Not so. Our brakes do a great job but i did want a little more bite. As we drove longer I found myself braking much earlier or using the CVT "gears" to bleed off some speed.
PS- That instant Hybrid torque was a huge plus in keeping up with a lighter more powerful car.

Are your rotors Zinc coated?
To the OP, you better make sure you install some aftermarket harder compound pads with these, or else ( as a regular street user as you claimed ), you will come back here in less than 3 months complaining!!
Also, if you decide to go for aftermarket pads to preserve life, wear some ear plugs!

Completely true brother! I speak from personal experience as a purchaser and end user. These rotors will eat through OEM brake pads much quicker than OEM rotors.

i have a full set of these rotors and pads on my car i noticed that its about a 10% reduction in stopping power but a lot less dust.. stopping power is increased the more the pads heat up due to the pads being ceramic. it takes a pretty hard stop to heat these bad boys up
people forget they also tend to drive harder on softer/performance base compound pads which wear faster.
another question we get often is do the rotors themselves wear faster, and the same answer applies.
ultimately it's all about miles driven and more importantly driving (braking) style...
absolutely...
one of multiple features & benefits of AR is we complimentary zinc every set in silver zinc with unique black & gold upgrades as well.
