power slot cryo treated rotor, anyone try these yet?
i saw these on tire rack and they sound quite interesting, they claim to be "warp and crack resistant"
because of there cryo-treatment.
has anyone tried them and had good/bad results?
(i know the advantages and disadvantages of drilled/slotted rotors and dont want this to become a brembo blank vs. other brand argument, because thats basically all i got when i searched)
heres the link-

Re: (Televator)
holy crap, those are expensive. I replaced all 4 rotors with cross-drilled & slotted rotors in the front and blanks in the back, $60. 
(my father gets OEM suspension/chassis replacement parts for cost)

i know there pretty expensive, but in the past 5 years ive severely warped 3 sets of rotors. Good rotors too power slot, then brembo blanks, then napa premium rotors (better then i expected btw)
i drive my car through twisties pretty hard, i guess ill be the first to try them, im thinkin go using either hawk ceramic pads, or axxis ultimate pads, no more EBC ive had bad luck with them cracking, and separating from the backing.
but if anyone has tried these rotors, please comment!

Re: (h23prelude)
that's odd. I've been running Raybestos Ceramic pads on my generic cross-drilled/slotted OEM replacement rotors (same as Napa's, but before Napa gets them and brands them) for about 5 years now. And my driving style...imagine AutoX on city streets. Not a single problem for me. Oh, and I just checked on my rotor prices, and they've gone up. They are now $21/each.

I have cryo-treated rotors on my wrx, which eats brakes! the first 82K, it went through 3 sets of rotors, and I know the last set had been turned at least once as well. I swapped to the cryos, and with another 26k on the car with them, they are still flat and happy, took like 10K to even look worn!
Well worth it in my opinion!
