R1 Concepts brakes,anyone use or know about?
 
Is anyone using these or heard of them? I did a search and came across them They said they could do just slotted rotors as well. I've heard too many bad things about drilled rotors.

what have you heard bad about drilled rotors, i have had drilled rotors on my car for the past 3000 miles, with high performance hawk pads, and i love them, i have never been able to get them to fade, and believe me i have tried :rolleyes:

I've read that drilled rotors are prone to cracking around the holes cuasing them to weaken and possibly grenade.

I have a set of R1 Concept rotos sitting in the garage. I haven't put them on yet because of the 6MT swap.

i was reading in an older edition of PAS magazine. and wilwood came out with an all around big brake kit for the 05+ WRX. front and rears. the rears will allow for the P brake to still work. So if any of you already have larger rims. this is a good brake option. i dont know on the price. check it out though
