I have them for the last 5 months, no issues and I am happy

86701
86702
86703
No they are not nickle or zinc coated, which must be removed from the braking surface to work properly, it the rotor is shinny it wont stop your car as well as they should and they are not D&S. If you put an "R" after the number then you can get the D&S about $52 each.
Dont be fooled by Marketing and old technology.

I paid like $235 last year shipped.... there was a special at that time. I like the look, but kinda sucks what happened. I guess I expected it overtime, but didnt think it would be "that" fast. The zinc coating on the hub part doesnt stay good looking for a long time. Corrodes a lil...
I will get either slotted or slotted/dimpled next time. NO drilled! I need to get a set here like ASAP... Might throw on the good set of stockers I have on here while I decide. I dont like the idea of cracked rotors.

Mine came from the same company. One thing mentioned is the holes are 3/16" dia. leaving a little more "meat". Supposed to be less prone to cracking. I've only had them on the car for a few weeks so can't tell too much. The finish is good (zinc)I'm very easy on brakes as they just slow you down

These drilled and slotted rotors are five years old and have 58,000 miles on them. Not one crack anywhere, they actually look better then when they were New.
My rears are 14 in and New and in a few years will look as nice as My front rotors,,
