Jim, weren't u using stock OEM rotors?
As far as I know (being the second owner of the car and buying it with 50K miles on it) these were the factory rotors on the car.
do y'all feel a difference with the rotors? i felt a small one with my last ride. just wondering if it was maye just in my head or if they really make a lot of difference stopping.
I have always contended the stock brakes on an FC, when maintained correctly, are amazing. I have never had an issue with my brakes. I just decided to swap out my Rotors for some new ones as a precautionary measure. I dicovered after the fact that the old rotors were cracked. I was planning on hanging on to them as back ups.
yep coss drilled obsolete
BTW- Phins I forgot you carried them. I just called Tire rack in a panic.

I have the HP Plus and my OEM replacement rotors aren't cracked yet. I only have a few autocrosses on these pads though... a road course I'd think would really test the rotors more than a one minute autocross run.

Word, my cross drilled that came on the car were cracked, and had some bad waves in the face because of the drilling. I will never buy cross drilled again, well actually I will never BUY cross drilled because I guess I never did in the first place
Right now I run Powerslot Rotors up front with Hawk HPS+ and they work great, although I am not the road course driver you are They love to squeak at MEDIUM temps but are okay when cold and hot
