Lol my bad. I got better stopping power in the rain. Yes no squeeking. When rotors are zinc coated they tend to squeek. After installation i did some 40mph braking without full stops and it broke them in immediately. They came with centric brake pads and the rotors came with centric boxes. Centric makes tons of rotors for brands like powerslot and stoptech.
