I'm not sure but the front rotors I have now might be R1's. If so I've been very happy with them as they've been on the car for two years with no problems whatsoever.

thats awesome, the rotors that my dad bought a couple years ago are rusting because they didnt have and paint or plating, so I am def gonna replace all 4 corners, the front rotors are still good but it leaves a lot of rust every where when they get wet...

well the zinc plating or painted rotors dont rust around the middle of the rotor and mine do, I might be able to get a pic of the rust...its nasty, wasnt talking about the braking surface area.

this is from a Camaro owner on streetfire.net that I talk to, its totaly worth the 124.99$ for these rotors.
