Mine cracked between the holes after about 2 years. Practically all the $100-$300 rotors are the same. I found these on another site. I would doubt they are much different than the ones you are looking at. $100 cheaper though.

.I'm either going back to stock rotors or open up my wallet and get something better.

I threw away the remaining three rotors and bought baer eradispeeds from forum vendor LAPD. Unforunately, I had to learn a lesson the hard way. I wouldn't always say you get what you pay for, but in my case I did!

I guess I'm just unlucky. 
I had Sportbrakes rotors on my car until yesterday. They warped in the first several thousand miles of street use. I ran Durastop ceramics and hated the feel every time I stepped on the brakes. I installed Baer Eradispeed +2's (still drilled and slotted) all around yesterday with HPS pads. The difference is night and day. Now it stops as good as it goes.

I've had my Sportbrakes on for almost 3 years now. No warping or cracking. But my 2002 is not raced or tracked.
The only problem is a little discoloration in the hat area. They may easily clean up... I've just never pulled off the wheels and tried.
But I unsuccessfully tried to contact Sportbrakes after the sale about this minor problem. I didn't ask for replacement or returns... just about whether this was normal and how to properly clean them up. Three emails - spread over 6 months time - all went unanswered.
