Had them 4-5 months ( can't remember for sure ). So far so good. I did paint the rotors first to prevent rust. Stops good and smooth. For the price, even if they only lasted a year, your not out much. Worth it in my opinion.

I've had them on the Monte for about 15,000 miles or so and they have held up great. They don't look as good as they did out of the box but they're still holding off the rust. I don't drive the Monte in the winter though. Absolutely no brake dust.

First set of rotors they sent me rusted very quick so I called them up and complained and Adam @ Brakemotive sent me new rotors even though they don't warranty rust issues. After him seeing the pics of what they looked like after a couple car washes, he stepped up. So, great product, great price and great customer service.

I'm on my second set in 3 years. I could've kept the others I just didn't want the rust to show when I put my summer wheels on. But overall I like them and for the price unbeatable

I had never had coated rotor before.. So that messed with me at first the brakes were kinda grabby/then slip for a few times at first. then no problems.

I did the 30/30 brake in first, then later did they harder brake in listed on gmls4.com and they feel great stopping from any speed.

I have them on my wife's G6 for 5,000 miles and they are great brakes. I'm still not used to the slight vibration/humming when braking due to the slots and cross-drilling.
