Hit, just make sure you get the zinc, or cad. coated so the hats don't rust -

Have them on my allroad for 10k or so no warp. Great for street apps some concern on cracking at

track though.

I am running Zimmerman fronts, but plain (no slots or holes), and they are fine...

...I agree with A6sport about the zinc or cadmium coating. Unfortunately, ECS does not carry the zinc coating for the rotors with the correct hat offset for my car, so they are rusty looking. I will probably paint the hats in the spring when it is a bit warmer out.
