According to the seller they are Brembo blanks and then slotted and drilled by a 3rd party company. Just wondering how are they? Any experience(good or bad) like premature warping, cracking, or rusting?

Thanks

No no no, the rotors are already drilled for four lug, the third party drilling is for the "cross drilling" and/or slotting.

And yes, I have a set of four blanks that I had done from a place on E-Bay. Unfortunately, it took about two weeks longer than they quoted me because their machinist went on vacation.

I used those same ones on my Integra. Seemed fine. I don't know about braking performance, but they did the job.

I had them turned 2-3 times as well and they were still going when I sold my integra.

I bought cross-drilled, slotted rotors from iRotors (they also sell on eBay) for my old Q45. They were made by Bradi, not Brembo, but these are sister companies and the rotors were fine!

I was happy with them. No cracking or warping problems of any kind till I sold the car after a few thousand miles. Note that iRotors can also Zinc-plate the rotors to prevent rusting! Nice feature, but an added cost. Sometimes they have sales on their web site for the Zinc-plating - maybe you can talk them into it!
