if you do a search, you will find your answers here and other cl/acura sites. i have those rotors but with porterfield r4s pads all around. they work well and the only complaint i have is the development of a whistling like noise. some others have said the same about the noise and there was also issue about the durability of the finish. i guess the rest are happy campers. there is a groupbuy going on if you didn't already know.

Yeah, I've got the same setup as StanMan and that "noise" had me a little worried until others mentioned hearing the same thing. The noise sounds like someone clothes-pinned a playing card to their bicycle spokes. I've yet to find out if ALL slotted or cross-drilled rotors make this noise, or if only the RaceConcepts rotors get this privilege. Other than that I've been a happy camper.

I have metal master pads. They stop way better than stock ones. The only complain is that they make clucking sounds when the car is about to get fully stopped, and make the same sound when the cailpers are released
