Seems like every so often some well-meaning soul posts their fried rotors free-just-pay-shipping. Maybe next time one of those pops up we pay for them to send it to Coleman.
My set only has 14k on it so not ready for replacement yet ...
I will make sure the 1M forum is aware of this opportunity, though.

You should be able to find some. I had a beat set I was gonna throw out, or give to someone to turn in for new set under warranty.

Ayao,

Thanks a lot for updating the 1M Forum as well. The more the merrier. I just had my last set replaced under maint. This one has 2 track days and will last a while. I am seriously convinced its the drills which accelerates the pad wear on our cars.

Keep me in the loop! Thanks guys.

The good thing is that they can give us blanks (no slots, no drills, no drama) which is better for pad wear as well. Secondly, they are heat treated and really can avoid cracks (first hand experience with my STi). Pricing is similar, no need for 10+ orders. If there is interest with even 3-4, we can make it happen. Still need to send rotors in for measurements.

Cost $400 each side. This includes rotor ring (replacement rings in the future is only $150 per side which is also heat treated so less prone to cracking, includes pins to put it to the hats ($15) and the aluminum hat $235.
A lot of BMW CCA Club racing guys run this (this is how I came across them).

Sounds like a great deal. Will they anodize the hats or have color options or is it the polished/machined aluminum like on their website? also, is that price for the rotors confirmed?

What a thread bump. I'm not sure they ever made them ... first I've heard of them for the M. Very popular with other makes, though.

ST and PFC make front rotors in OE sizes already. Kicker for me would be a F&R matching set in OE sizes.

The closest thing to these available for our cars are the PFC's or the RB's or Stoptechs.

In other words, there are plenty of non-Girodisc choices

i have the RB rears. They're nice, and the only ones who make a matching f/r setup (which I can't take advantage of because I have an STR40 front brake kit, lol)

Dang, I bought OEM rotors from FCP Euro for lifetime warranty replacement. Would have loved to get a set of these.

They're popular with owners of cars that have factory CCBs since they offer the iron rotors as direct replacements. I haven't heard anything negative. Looks like a decent product.

Too bad things never progressed.

Super unfortunate. I’m due for brakes pretty soon and starting to look at options that don’t include buying a bbk.

This is news to me, nobody on this thread has mentioned or linked them, but I guess you’re right! A bit pricey compared to say, the StopTech set. But might be a good option

I just noticed it was in their website and a few others vendors like auto talent.

Hmmm 🤔

Probably great but not so different from other offerings. Again, too bad no matching rears.

Sucks that they don’t have matching front and rear rotors. I’m trying to match!
