actually I can show pics of mine that the inner hub is 75% rusted...the only time it looks like less is when brake dust covers it...happens in the front...never in the back

the face of the rotor where the calipers grab gets rusty during a wash but goes away after a 2 minute drive

Rotors

Wankel, what paint did you use on the rotors and where did you get the decal. Your rotors look sharp and have a factory appearance.

The fact is that a couple simple google image search would reveal this happens on Audi's, Celica's, BMW's, Honda's, pick-up trucks, subaru's, and pretty much everything else that has disc brakes... only difference is they are like normal people and don't bitch about it to the point it becomes a TSB!!!


also, if where the caliper grabs doesn't get rusty I'd be more afraid then anything...
