Rotors
Existing rotors .98 x 11.75 cast iron
Alternatives
Spoon cast iron , directional ( one side) , holes , same weight (- holes) and plated?
DBA Longlife Gold cast iron directional (both sides?), holes same weight and plated ( available soon? )
Problem with existing brake rotors they don't cool very fast. Rotors are vented but vanes are straight don't promote increased air flow . Cast iron is great heat sink but making complete rotor out of cast iron increases weight and brings heat from outside diameter of rotor down to center of rotor and transferrs heat to aluminum wheels ( melting plastic wheel centers)Large bearing area where wheel meets rotor promotes transfer .Heat is also trasfered to hub and bearing assembly. Honda's IN-Wheel-SUSPENSION dictates where rotor must be placed . Steering arm on hub is inside limit and wheel spokes and caliper size is outside limit.
