this will be my 4th time replacing them in the last year & half.
98 GT, stock calipers, united rotors, united ceramic pads

correct me if I'm wrong, do ceramic pads create more heat then semi-metallic? never really had any hard facts just assumed this, just like I ASS-umed that my rotors being cross-drilled & slotted could dissipate the extra heat of my driving habits. or is this just a common occurrence?


thanks for any info,
Wes

Guessing by the brand United -- you bought them from napa -- I use to have those rotors to and if you drive hard on them they will warp easily, not as easy as stock but still. I now have Raybestos brand rotors 8 months so far they have been working great.
