Centric - Reverse Mount Front Rotor Directional Vane Blank Set - NEW!

New for 2013! As always we try our best to bring the latest and greatest parts to the S2000 community. Last year or so ago APM/SOS brought to market some slotted J hook rotors like these then were discontinued as Centric purchased the company I'm told. While I was really impressed with the weight savings and cooling from this reverse mount design I didn't really want slotted rotors as a preferred the tried and true blanks most prefer.

Centric now offers their reverse mount rotors in blanks for those doing heave track duty! Directional vented rotors feature vanes that are directionally oriented for both the left and the right rotor to allow air flow to be pump from the inside out. The center reverse mounted hub of the brake rotor places the ventilation on the wheel side of the rotor for increased air flow. The reverse mount design allows the factory heat shield to be retained in order to protect the suspension and steering joints from heat. The cooler running rotor will allow more consistent brake performance, increased durability, and a longer use life. In addition to increased durability from the rotor - suspension joints, steering joints, and wheel bearings will benefit from cooler running rotors. These rotors are factory sized and not 2 piece, so no additional class points required.

We just ordered up a bunch of these without slots for the summer and offer a long wait they finally arrive. The price isn't too much more than normal centric premium blanks which is key.


Features:
- Improved cooling efficiency - compared to factory & aftermarket straight vanes, directional vane rotors improves durability of brake components, suspension & steering joints. 12% cooler temperatures on track ( confirmed on track by SOS S2000 testing )
- Lighter weight design - front rotor ~1 lb lighter than factory
- Epoxy coating - coating on non swept areas (hub & vanes) inhibit corrosion to keep rotors looking great.
- Double disc ground - taper free finish ensures parallel surface and better brake pad - rotor break in.
- Mill balanced - additional machining operation eliminates rotor vibration.

Looking to get new rotors and pads before itr expo. I cant decide what to get. Thinking about these rotors. What is the price for these, front and rear?

"Centric - Reverse Mount Front Rotor Set - 00+ S2000"

Correct, same spec, just blanks. Most guys don't want slots, and want them as cheap as possible so we hope these fit the bill!
