Holy wheel weights batman!!

 

OK here we go. Judging by the rust on the center of the "spare" rotor in these pictures and the black (powdercoat) on the cracked one, I'm inclined to say that it was one of the R2Concept rotors that cracked. But that's a guess. Bottom line, the way I beat up on these things for 4 years, I'm surprised any of them lasted this long!

Left spare, right cracked rotor:

Left cracked rotor, right brand new OEM rotor

I think the uncracked one is the OEM, look at the cut off for the grey coating, it's paint free inside that where at the cracked R has the black coating inside that. More reason for me to stay OEM unless I eventually go floating rotor setup, which I'm not sure is really worth it.

 

yeah lol, well the wheels are light

 

I agree. Glad I ordered OEM ones. Gonna stay with those. If I want them to look nice I'll just paint them black myself and keep that set for "show" purposes lol
I will definitely go with the floating rotors next year for the track.

 

Those aren't light I'd bet 24 lbs, stock SS/TC are only 20 lbs and my PF01's are 18 lbs.

 

^^ This. I had these wheels on my daughter's Neon and they were heavy. They also didn't fare very well after coming into contact with a big pothole at 70mph...

 

Yikes

 

If they do exist, I don't care. I suggest typing it in Google yourself and find what you need.

 

WTF has been shoved up your ass? Seriously go to the Facebook groups you'll fit in there better. It's getting annoying seeing your mostly negative comments and you don't even like your car so just move on.

 

always one to spoil the fun, i am glad i stumbled upon this thread because i was looking to replace my pads and rotors.

 

Adrian we should add air direction vents to your control arms, that might help some cooling during non braking areas at High Plains

 

Damn, I have seen 2,000 dollars asanti flake and chip...


I believe there lighter then the SS polished wheels, i got them because they were 90 bucks a piece

 

Maybe the same as the SS/SC but I'm sure not than the SS/TC wheels.

 

Sounds like a plan!
We need to make a to-do list for this winter lol

 

Impressive!

 

stock ss/sc wheels are about 22lbs.

the polished wheels and gunmetal weigh the same.

 

You need some Carbon Ceramic brakes Adrian.

 

I like crack tho

 

No ****! If there was a conversion kit for these Z28 brakes I'd be all over that

 

Im pretty sure if you put z28 brakes on a cobalt you could stop so hard you would set the airbags off from the G's you would pull lmao

 

Works for me. Last a long time. Cost a lot of money.

 

LT stock to Brembo conversion.

BTW carbon Corvette brake setup is about 20 k.

 

:drool:

Are those the floating rotors for the LNF John?

As soon as I get my engine temps sorted that'll be next on my list of track goodies

 

Those "high end sports cars" have carbon ceramic rotors which cost thousands of dollars and are extremely durable. Go to a road course track that has real race cars sometime and tell me how many cars that you see that have drilled rotors. I will be you as much money as you have that you will not find a single car that runs them unless they are carbon ceramic.
