VERY NICE... You doing that 5 boro cruise on 10/10?
They look sweet, and will certainly slow you smoother if not faster
as your taking an exit off The Belt at about 65

Those look awesome as hell. I really like the black/red color combo. What's the weight savings over stock? That's where the money's really at when it comes to rotors.

Hey bro how much did it cost to get your calipers painted? Also are they powder coated?

They look sweet man. U shouldve painted the slots and holes with high temp paint though. Eventually they're gonna rust. And that ring from where the black paint of the hub ends is definitely gonna rust too.

love the setup between the volks, rotors and painted calipers. Gives it a great look.

They do look sweet, can't take that away, but blanks would probably stop faster due to having more surface area. Biggest difference in braking would come from the pads and stainless steel brake lines. Weight savings would be my biggest thing for a street car. In day to day driving, reaction time will play a bigger role in avoiding sticky situations than having an upgraded brake system.
