BR group buy on light rotors

[David Buschur]

[David Buschur]

I want to add some information to this sale. Those of you that know me know I am a huge weight savings fanatic.

I've run quite a few different brands of rotors at this point. As far as weight goes vs price, there is no lighter rotor on the market than these.

The stock front EVO8-9 rotor weighs in at 21.35#'s
The stock rear EVO8-9 rotor weighs in at 14.6#'s

These rotors weigh in at only 15.5#'s for the front and 11.4#'s for the rear.

I have personally run these on the front of the RS now for about 4 years, minus the short time I had the ultra light Giro's on the front.

I don't think you can beat the pricing vs. the weight on these rotors and I happy as hell with them on all four corners of my car.

would one have to worry about these warping during road course events like the girodisc ultra lights?

[David Buschur]

Well it would depend on how "one" would be driving! haha Just messing you "one/you".

My personal opinion is these will not warp like the Giro Disc race rotors and these can be turned, unlike the Giro race rotors. Now, I have heard of quite a few guys who use cross drilled rotors having them crack starting at the drilled holes. I would not recommend them for a car doing a lot of road racing, only because of the cases I have seen on other cross drilled rotors. If you are need a light set of rotors for road racing then I recommend the standard Giro discs still.

I'm going to do a write up tomorrow on some changes I made to my RS, they have COMPLETELY blown my mind!

Perfect timing I'm in the market for new rotors and pads!

[David Buschur]

Let me know what you are going to do with the car and I will set you up with some killer pads too. I need to know how much noise/dust you can tolerate and the primary use of the car etc.

[blackout]

How is the noise / dust on the hawk dtc30 pads you are running now? I might as well replace my pads too when I do rotors all around. Do we just need to call up the shop and place a order for this pricing? How long is this price good for? thx

[David Buschur]

Yes, just call the shop to get the deal on the rotors. I drove the car just long enough to bed the brake pads. There was quite a bit of dust on the wheels after doing so but I don't know if it was from using the brakes so often and hard while I was driving it or if it's going to be a normal amount of dust. I personally would think it will get less once they are bedded and I'm not using the brakes so often/hard. I heard one squeal from mine when I first started bedding them, after that I didn't hear anything else.

David, i would like to get in on a set of these when i come back..along with pads..should be back sometime next month. I plan on getting some suspension/braking mods done this winter as well as more weight savings. I'll give you a call once i return.

[David Buschur]

No problem Eric, we have them on the shelf.
