Have you been miking your calipers? Vince miked my calipers and jotted the number down with a sharpie on the rotor. We must still be within tolerance because he never mentioned I was due for rotors. As often as I drive my car I dont concern myself with rotor friendly pads. IMO they are a wear item but then again I am still on the original fronts and replaced the rears once.
Good chance they are PBR's which should do fine with the proper rotor material and pad.

Tobin mentioned the slots in the DBA rotors serve as wear indicators, check the minimum service spec vs rotor width minus slot depth.

I need to run up to his place to return a stand alone prop valve, so I'll quiz him more thoroughly on rear options.

Thanks for the input, I can't get too much insight from other enthusiasts perception.
