I saw these this morning:

This is my favorite part:

"Pro Stop rotors are machined with our highly effective Vac-U-Slot design and enhanced with a series of “dimples” that look like drilled holes. As the brake pad contacts the rotor, the dimples turn black, simulating the cross-drilled look."


So who is it, when asked if they want to pay more (they cost more then the un-dimpled ones, I checked the prices) for rotors with less surface area and dimples that are apparently designed solely to get clogged up with brake material, who is it that says "yes"? If you offered me that option I think I would just stare at you, at a loss for words. I'm hoping this is some kind of government plot where they keep track of everyone who buys these, then have a massive sting operation where they confiscate all their cars, revoke their driver licenses, and issue them all public transportation vouchers.

EDIT - And they call them "Pro Stop" rotors, because this is what all the real automotive professionals have been looking for to stop their cars:rolleyes:

Its like how I think lots of stupid SUV and many BMW drivers have gunmetal wheels and I'm like wow, I didn't know the Explorer had gunmetal colored wheels and then I see the rear ones and they are just silver.

Damn ricers can't afford to get gunmetal wheels so they just use brakedust.

REAL ricers buy black wheels, then we don't have to worry about that crap:
