I had a prototype set of cryo-tempered Power Slot rotors on my S10 since around 2004. Paired exclusively and always with Hawk HPS pads, that was the most incredible set of direct-replacement rotors and pads I've ever known. They stopped smoothly, quickly and reliably no matter what- temperature, frequency- it didn't matter. After about 12 years, 70,000+ miles and one change of pads, the rotors barely had a lip around the edge where it had worn over time.
I bought these cryo-tempered slotted Power Stop (or Stop Tech) rotors thinking they were the same thing. They're wearing faster than the pads. I got Hawk pads again but their LTS version since it's a Tahoe. I like the look of the slots, but they dust like crazy and I'd rather have smooth brakes than be concerned with some flair.
Thanks for the part numbers and input!
