frank, how are the brakemotives working for you? I want the drilled and slotted, is there any rust after it sits or gets wet?

I'm curious as to this too. I put brand new pads and rotors on my Bonne a few months ago and the next week the rotors were all rusted up

they're still working great! checked the pads the day i switched out my wheels and they still have plenty of meat on them

after sitting maybe.... idk since my monte is always in use as a DD :p
i have noticed rust after they get wet though, which is normal in all rotors isnt it? lol

They are "treated" with a coating, but obviously where the pad hits the rotor the coating wears off. So yes after rain, or a dewey morning, etc. there will be surface rust and it goes away after a few brakes. The main areas where the rim touches is still kind of nice.

They don't keep the beautiful look, but they seem to be pretty decent after almost 2 years for me.
