Your best bet is to be honest about your driving style and environment.
Ceramic coated rotors.
Additionally some rotors are constructed from carbon.
Tested to withstand 400 hours of salt spray equivalent to 18 southern michigan winter months coated brake rotors edges and vanes stay cleaner longer optimizing air flow and performance.
Special polymer coating also keeps rust from forming along the outer edges of the pad swept area to prevent edge lift.
Aluminum is another material used for rotors which is favored by motorcycles because it s lightweight.
If most of your driving is just commuting to and from work cast iron brake rotors are probably exactly what you need.
They use a mao mico arc oxidation process to bond the ceramic material to the aluminum which they developed to be able to offer these at a reasonable cost.
It is important to note that the coating itself is designed to be worn away in certain areas.
Above is the ceramic coated aluminum disc brake rotor from hsc huang chieh metal which uses a bit of venting on the braking surface and an 8 arm structure to maximize stiffness.
This allows the ceramic pads to handle high brake temperatures with less heat fade provide faster recovery after the stop and generate less dust and wear on both the pads and rotors.
At allrotors our premium rotors come with geomet 360 coating one of the most advanced durable and eco friendly coating on the market today.
Carbon rotors offer excellent heat.
Premium wagner e shield rotors wagner e shield rotors are engineered for maximum performance.
Ceramic is the highest performance brake rotor available today.
Featuring an e shield protective coating to reduce corrosion and oe specific vane design for effective braking power wagner e shield rotors are packaged in a vapor corrosion inhibitor vci bag eliminating the need for an oil coating which reduces prep time.
These pads use ceramic compounds and copper fibers in place of the semi metallic pad s steel fibers.
