I haven't done any special cleaning on the wheels or the discs. Just overheated them on the track, and subjected them to NE road salt. At first, the shine dimmed until the hats had a dull gray soapy look. Then they began to rust. Inside of drilled holes has now rusted, along with outer edge of disc.
Agree with you about drilling. Next set will be slotted only. Got a pretty good price from Frozen Rotors for new slotted cryo front discs. May go with that. Not that much more than Ben's
I have not had problems with brake fade, at all, and I use them pretty hard, to the extent that my ABS is coming on. When you are dropping from 120 to about 45-50 with ABS, that's pretty hard, but no fade. I think that good pads Axxis Ultimates, Wilwood 570 fluid, and the slotted rotors (leaving out drilling as an issue) makes for areally good track-day setup for this car.
