I understand that you track the car, but I didn't think that non-drilled rotors cracked so frequently.

The brakes are a weak point on a s2k; they were designed for when the car was first launched. Tires are much stickier now, and I'm putting 255 in the front vs the 205 on the original AP1. Meanwhile, I'm still using the same brakes....

Interesting. Are you using Centric CTEC rotors or something cheap? Do you have any first-hand or second-hand experience with cryo-treated rotors?

I've tried everything that's an OEM replacement; they all break. OEM, Ctek, Centric Premium, Brembo, EBC, and Cryostop. Keep in mind this will NEVER happen under normal circumstances.

no cracks and no wobbles when braking? i would throw on new pads and go with it. but if you don't want to, you can get generic roters from napa or centric for super cheap. like $40 each cheap.

i was just never sure how much oem pads wore down the rotors........
im not too hard on the car as its only on its second set of oem pads.

What about Cross-Drilled Rotors?

Don't they crack easier?

Yes but not under normal street driving and occasional mountain runs and several autox event
