They are the same O/D as stock rotors, only they are cross drilled or slotted..

yeah, as shoofin said, its just the acura stock rotors that are cross drilled (looks alright, and will reduce brake fade a bit I suppose. i am combining that with the metal master pads next week , so i'll let you know how it goes then.

The only part that will remain painted would be the hub.. The surface where the pad hit's the rotor will change to the silvery color like stock. I doubt it will improve braking, probably reduce fade a bit due to better cooling like the other "ed" said .

Yeah, I know they are stock size but i'm asking do they improve braking at all, and if it's worth the money. Anyone got silver, gold or black rotors on their TL? I wanna see some pics before I decide what color to get. Thanks, anyone?
