    Since reading comprehension seems to be a lost art in this thread, I'll make it clear for the last time, with short and clear sentences:

    Incorrect use WILL cause rotors to have thickness variation and runout due to deposition. Thickness variation and runout cause symptoms like vibrations. People attribute these vibrations to a rotor that has somehow warped in shape. The rotor didn't warp in shape. Deposition on the surface causes it to be uneven. Unevenness leads to the symptoms. If you want to call this set of conditions warped, fine. No point in arguing over semantics. The point is incorrect usage (not the inherent quality of the rotor) led to this set of conditions. If you don't recognize this you will cause these symptoms again, no matter which brand of rotors you buy.

    /end thread jack, sorry op. My point is for blank rotors, I'd just get whichever the cheapest is, although internal vanes are nice to have.

    Please tell me if you think my car looks good. But don't tell me if you think it's ugly - only on IA
