surface rust ??

Is the surface rust normal after it sits out in the rain, pics are from sitting out over the Xmas holiday, notice it in the past, wanted to know if there is something you could do to prevent it or dont worry about it?

Yes, it's normal. There is nothing you can do about it. It's from the crappy metal the rotors are made with.

just pull the wheel and clean the rotor is about all

Zink coatings help on areas that the pad doesnt rub on... then it comes down to the treatments the rotors ahve been through, and the heat cycles...

I have enjoyed the www.r1concepts.com rotors for mine... they work well and are guarenteed to not warp ... I have the premium rotors all teh way around, and they dont rust much at all. you wont see any rust on them if it sits less than a week outside. After that they get a light dusting, that yuo cant notice unless you get right up on them.

A trip up the street will take care of that. No pulling of the wheels needed!

Yea...i took some pics of my ride a few days ago too....noticed the same thing. My car has been sitting longer then its used to....been hurt for the past month so i cant work.

so a few good runs should clean it up you say?....

Yup

alrighty then...

take it out for a ride and hit the brakes a few times, they'll clean them self off

yeah, only notice it if she sits for a few days, no probs, it does just wear off once you drive a bit
