I was looking for upgraded rotors for my C6 GS......These two piece rotors run 9 pounds lighter then the stocks.. Anyone have any experience with these?? and what about there pads?

I think they got a bad rep a while back. Others will know and chime in. Do a search here or other sections.

An exploded one from another car put a hole in my pass. floor. I am not a fan.

Don't even think about using them or anything else they make. There are many posts about problems with their stuff. JD

These are also based on USA-manufactured Coleman rotors, and I honestly think they are the best 2-piece option both in terms of performance and price. You can get them for about $700 for a pair, and they are 10lbs lighter than the OEM Z06 rotors EACH! So, if you just replace front OEM rotors of a C6 Z06, you end up deleting 20 lbs of unsprung weight; making your front rolling mass less than ZR1's with its carbon-ceramic brakes..

They also do manufacture heavy-duty brakes with less weight savings, though, and I'm not sure if you'd rather need those rotors for competition use. Those who have used them, please chime-in to comment on durability of regular Coleman/AFX rotors vs. the heavy duty ones

The AFX rotors & customer service are very good. I have a set of (4) on my car and they do very well for my DD.

I have them on all 4 corners. 10 pounds lighter each in the front and 3.5 each in the rear. Have had zero problems with them. They had a bad wrap years ago and from what I'm told it was only the fact that they didn't last long.

X25

I didn't get it. Wrap? Perhaps warp? So they warp when they don't last long?

Toilets

No, the company had a bad wrap. As in a bad wrap sheet

X25

Do you mean rep? As in reputation?

Toilets

No, it's actually a saying...

Example; 250 million cars and trucks on the roads get a bad wrap for being environmentally unfriendly

Definition; unjustified critism

pass on them and get some coleman rotors not a fan of the racing brake stuff

You mean "bad rap" then:
