They dont seem to warp easily and there only like 60something a piece from Tirerack. Most will say Brembo blanks. I took this advice about six months ago and it turned out to be really good advice.
My stockers were warped bad: replaced them with Brembos, drove the **** out of 'em and the Brembos are still in perfect condition.

I just happened across these on tirerack and was curious from an info stand point if anyone knows anything about them

I still think that either of the above is the best way to go, but as I've followed these threads all the time, I haven't seen anyone discuss these rotors.

Actually, the "best bang for the buck" would have to go to the ones I got from O'Reilly Autoparts. Are they any better than the Autozone ones? Nope - they're the same exact thing. But, O'Reilly will replace them if they warp!
I do auto-xing and RRing, so I've warped a few. I used to go to Autozone and plop down the $40 or so, figuring it was the cost of doing business. But, now I just go to O'Reilly, plop down the old rotor and receipt, and they give me a new one!
