AWESOME! Do us all a favor and put an OEM rotor right next to the DBA in the same position
as the last photo when you swap them. I would love to see the comparison in the ventilation slots.

isitmyimagination ¿r is the OEM thicker metal?
yes theÊslots Oere cool and will dissipate gases, but it also looks like bigger cooling slots with the tradeoff of lower disc mass/thinner wear surfaces.
Since Audi wear limits are roughly 1-2mm/side.....even less meat to the wear limit..

Heat is the problem. You have to dissipate it better. The wear limits aren't that important
because the Audi rotors will warp and groove waaay before you reach the wear limits. The mass of the rotors are also roughly the same, the internal vanes give a lot of mass as well as a lot of surface area, you just don't see it at the "exit" side of the vane.

They look heavier than stock, what is the weight of them?
