Was looking at the Brembo gold zinc plated rotors and was wondering if anybody had any pics of these on a fox? I am looking for something that will not rust.

Thanks.....

Drilled rotors do have a higher tendency to crack, yes. Slotted rotors are ideal for a street car. Drilled has little to no functionality off track.

It only rubs off of the area where the pad sweeps. Untreated rotors will rust in the fins and on the center almost instantly. You'd have to take the rotor off to wire brush it off, and then it will come right back again if you leave it untreated. Keeps your car looking good; not many people notice clean rotors, but rusty ones stick out.
