Update...
So I got the replacement rotors installed today and I could immediately tell a HUGE difference. There was obviously something out of spec on the old rotors. The new rotors have a better better overall feel and there is absolutely no brake vibration on these at any speeds tested. The stops are firmer and more sure. I will also post a 500 mile review on the replacements. Once the car is clean again (after all the precipitation stops) I will follow thru on my promise to post better pics.

Glad your new brakes are working as they should. Where are those pics??? Can't rack up 500 miles in a month and a half?? LOL

Overall despite being zinc coated I am experiencing some spot rust on the rear hubs. Earlier I mentioned that the center hubs looked stained or something. Its as if the zinc coating wore off in spots and that's where it is rusting. I am going to pull the rear wheels off and get the spots removed and coat them with a protective finish. I don't want to risk pushing Stillen for new rotors and have the same issue I had at first.
