Wow I'm sorry Mr Diamond sir. I like everyone is human, make mistakes and mess up my facts. Did I not correct myself and say you were correct on the wheel size? Do you absolutely know 100% about your profession?

I've been on this forum a lot longer than you have helping way more people. So maybe once in awhile I'm wrong, but at least I'm not an ass to the people who don't have their facts straight.

Why don't you learn to show people a little respect or are you not capable of such a feat?

This guy just put those on and they are rusting. say what you will but OEM has tighter control and this doesnt happen nearly as often.

This coming from a guy who apparently sells E60 products and didnt even know the stock tire/wheel size on an e60-ya Ill really take your advice on anything..

You got any pics of your non rusted rotors? I have OEM ones and they rust around the edges of the rotors .... OH WAIT that's right, you dont have a camera.

i've sold tons of sets and this is the first time. definitely a fluke. the best companies have their defects just look at the car you're driving. :)

Just saw the pics of the rears... Definitely a fluke.
My R1 Concepts rotors are still perfect after 3 months and plenty of car washes. :thumbsup:

All rotors rust evntually. That is why everytime I replace my rotors on all my cars, I paint the hub and edges of the rotor with high temperature ceramic paint. This will prevent rusting and will be smooth for easy clean up.

PM replied sir! Michael you're awesome to deal with! :twoup: :twoup: As I mentioned earlier in this thread, I'm sure it's just a fluke. I went to different forums for different cars before getting R1 Concept rotors. Mine is actually the first negative I ran into. :P
