Rotor heat checking/cracking

I ordered a new set but has anyone taken risks ? Damn rotors are super expensive... 355mm stoptech

Hopefully by moving bias to rear a bit my next set will last longer

Yeah they get hot.. also depends on the pads you use.. softer pads = longer rotor life (stopping will vary with combo) lol

yeah they are expensive.. are you running any brake coolers?

The small cracks in the rotor are normal. Replace if a crack goes out to the edge.
