FX brake rotor swap

I was finally able to get the rear rotors unstuck.... thanks to the help of my 5lb hammer. So here's the pics. The rotors are from R1 Concepts. I also have a set from them for my Stealth, so I knew they'd be good.

Looks good- I'm in the market for some new pads and rotors. Any comments on longevity or any cracking issues (not sure how long you have run them on your stealth)??

I've had them on my Stealth for about 3 years now, but it's a show car, so I haven't put too many miles on them. I'm guessing around 6,000 miles. But they still look and perform great. I autocrossed the car back in October and the brakes never faded in 5 hours of all out driving.

I'm looking to change rotors and pads on my fx. I'm in san diego as well. How much do you charge ?

I couldn't charge someone to help them out. The big problem would be finding a time to do it. I work rotating shifts and some weekends. PM me and we can discuss my schedule and find a time to do it. It should only take about 2 hours now that I've done it before.
 
Good work. changing the rotors and pads is fairly simple, isn't it? The hard part can be getting the rotors off he hubs.

I've also got R1 Concepts rotors on my G sedan and coupe. They are good rotors.
