Ok so i've been looking at the brake rotors from R1 concepts. I believe that these are stock rotors ( they say stock calipers work with them) that have been drilled and milled. Does anyone know if this sounds correct?

You might try e-mailing Steve at R1 Concepts. He helped me out when I had some questions on brake pad material. He can probably answer your rotor question. His e-mail is.....steven@r1concepts.com

Or you could call him at 714-777-2323 ext. 7006

No big brake mods here, just need to pull my wheels, clean up the center of my rotors (paint worn off and some surface rust showing, UGH!) and paint them (thinking black rotor centers). Thinking about painting the calipers (orange?) while I'm at it. Suggestions?

Thanks, Bill;)

paint the centers black..............use a high heat paint should last longer...................as for the calipers duplicolor has a kit that you dont have to take off the caliper to paint it.............works really well.............and they have a few colors to choose from

I believe that BigEd has these on his Charger - you may PM him and ask if he doesn't jump on here and give his input on this thread...

Black, on the rotors, was what I was thinking too. I WAS thinking about orange on the calipers, but with all of those choices in colors, I'm not sure now!:confused: Guess I'd better put some more thought in that. I won't be doing any upgrading in the performance of the brakes on mine, just yet. Looking at the look and the engine performance for now and THAT will be AS I CAN!;)
