If you SEARCH "painting rotor" you'll get a lot more.

Are you refering to the brake pads, the rotors or the calipers?
Not sure what part it is. Its the part that you can clearly see when you are looking at the wheels. Its kind of a big roundish part. Ever since I bought the car it had a tendency to throw off rust.

The discs.

They will always have some degree of rusting on after standing still for a period of time, nothing to be concerned about.

Hahah
This is too funny. Must be the dust shield I guess. I really hope it's not the wheel as the "other round thing" lol.
