    Anyone have experience with Centric rotors?

    Are these good rotors? http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/brake...ar=&perfCode=S

    I DD my car, and every once in a while it sees AutoX use, and I want to run it on the race track (with BMWCCA driving school) this summer. These rotors are slightly cheaper than the Brembo blanks, and they caught my eye because apparently they have some black coating, and it looks pretty cool.

    Should I do it?

    OR should i cough up a few extra bucks and go with the Cryo-stops? http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/brake...ar=&perfCode=S

    Oh and I am planning on running Hawk HPS pads with these, according to my research.

    Thanks!

      Dave Zechausen (Zechausen Racing) sells Centric rotors and he won't sell anything that isn't first quality. They'll be fine. As far as rotors on the track are concerned, it doesn't get any better that high quality plain rotors.
      The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

          Well then the next question is: Centric or Cryo-stop? not sure if they are made by the same company or not...
