Has anyone here looked into cryogenic freezing of new rotors? My cousin had his done on his '06 Charger for around $30/piece in Tulsa. Had I known my Mazda would still be on jack stands I'd have done this back in December. I know a lot of performance parts places for Corvette, Porsche, and others sell cryo-frozen rotors so that the life of the part is dramatically increased. Long story short, the ROI is said to be well worth it.

So I have installed the new dimpled/slotted rotors and padsfrom brake performance. Due to my impatience I did not read the instructionsand was not aware that the rotors where directional (user error) I did call thecompany and spoke to their tech and he actually said I can leave them like thatand will not have any effect on longevity or performance. I may switch just forpeace of mind. Make sure you read the instructions! Lesson learned here. LOL
