Isaac,

I have been a user of cross-drilled rotors for years now. I used them because they never seem to warp under non-racing conditions. We first put them on a Taurus wagon that had a rotor warping problem (driving conditions were stop and go) and it solved it. Now I buy them for all of my main drivers. My wife will get a set when my new job starts. Only about $80 vs. $40 for stock. I was hoping to find some aero light weight wheels for a nicer car. That would look more hip, this one is a faithful beater. I also posted the photo because someone commented in another thread that they had a braking problem that was the result of hypermiling and for the post that had a concern over cooling w/full covers (pizza pan mod). I do have wheel covers on the car now and no one can see these babies. My car inspection guy loved it. His words "on a Geo??!". I told him it was for longevity. Thanks for noticing LOL!
