Default Baer Decelarotor Rotors

I'm looking for new rotors for my vette and I'm just wondering if anybody that has the Baer Decelarotor one piece rotors has had any problems ie. cracks, warping, or rusting. I know they are zinc coated but I was just wondering if the coating was lasting. Thanks in advance.

Check with Chip - Willfulone. I think he ran them.

Mine looked awesome for the first 2 years, then started to pit and rust. I recently polished them with steel-wool, etc. and clear-coated them, but they do not look as good as new. Now they look silver/grey not reflective silver.

Other that that they have performed great for over 3 years now.

Here is a pic from last week...

Until they warped out in about 14 months and less than 7K

Then there was the fantastic way I was treated when I called to inquire about them...

Peace
Chip

Thanks for the replies. I might have to reconsider my decision on these rotors.
