Default I drive my car hard......

2nd set that broke/warped/shattered, after track use. Manufacturer told me that this rotors weren't suitable for track use......got the first set warranteed, not the second set, which mind, lead to much more damages, e.g. pistons melted onto the backing plate of the brake pads...

Default not a big fan of stoptech either.

won't go into details but that crack is another reason i'd never buy anything from them. even if it is just a defect, just too many bad stories seem to come up all the time about that company. hope they replace it quickly or refund you though.

Default that's cool that they are replacing it w/ no hassles. most likely you'll get the rotors quickly

& have no further problem. they seem to work faster when they know you have a problem but I look forward to your update.
