Rotor crack
Here is a picure of just one of my rotors. Each one does have similar crack in it. Small but there. Is this common on C5's?
Probably not a good idea to track the car with rotors like this. ugh.

They are trashed!!
They can and will fracture worse and come apart!
Get a set of "SLOTTED" rotors or if you dont want anything fancy NAPA has some really nice OEM style rotors and they are very reasonable!! Get their PREMINUM Rotors!!
