No **** sherlock , I was wondering if they would be OK for a daily driven or weekend warrior. Did you have to use special pads to make up for the thinner rotor blown?

It wouldn't bother me at all driving these on the street. Just have to know your limitations. It's not a road race brake, so don't treat as such.

Yeah the brakes wouldn't bother me for normal street driving. I would be more concerned of the bearing and spindle for extended highway miles.

are you using regular pads or do you have to run special pads with these rotors?

I wouldn't spend much time street driving them simply for the cost to replace if you warp them. Not sure how much it would cost to replace the rotors but sure they aren't cheap.

I think the rotor are around $135 a piece according to the website. I'm not sure, so don't hold me to it, but I think madman can get a little discount. If he can't, my bad.

You should be the last person on here talking about brakes.
