In conjunction with OEM pads, it seems the inner centimeter or so of the rotor face is not used and has of course rusted over. Does anyone else observe this on their rears?

That would **** me off every time I looked at the car. You could paint the rust ring black to match the hub

I found my old OEM rears and see a similar unused section on the rotors, but it wasn't as obvious. It was rusted as well, but not this bright of a color. I think I just might give some paint a try.
