Darn it. Called this morning. Apparently they ship at 2 in the morning. I will give them the benefit of the doubt due to the fact I won't be able to get rid of them.

Ceramic are normally for street use.

If wheel/rotor are properly sealed from corrosive elements along with a little maintenance such as my case, there is no problems - and I am surrounded with salt air 24/7 in the middle of the Pacific. In my surroundings things will quickly corrode if not protected.

I certainly will take your Hawk-If the price is right.

How are they dyeing shipped ? If UPS just refuse them and send them back and get your money back.
Same with post office and fed ex.

Just a thought.

I swapped them out for track use recently for Centric blanks and Carbotech XP8s / XP10s.
+1. I'm running the 1521s and they are great.

I couldn't cancel the order over the phone because they shipped. But the tracking number says they shipped later in the evening. I had better chance of solving the grassy knowl mystery then canceling my order. Might just send them back and deal with the shipping and restocking fee.

Quick update. Still waiting on rotors. Little FYI for those considering such option. Plan a month in advance. Never again
