Plus they are dusty which I can live with due to having time to clean them every few days Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/25384-dba-4000-rotors/page/15/#findComment-887686 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nifty Lost Member Donating Members 134 Member For: 16y 8m 17d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 08/06/09 09:35 AM Share Posted 08/06/09 09:35 AM don't get me wrong, the ferodos brake really well better than I expected (great for track day too), and they dust up nicely too. It's the squeal I can't handle. If you find a good pad to go with these rotors that don't squeal, please let me know.

Pull up good with no squeal. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/25384-dba-4000-rotors/page/15/#findComment-887744 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work great, but can be a bit noisy when cold and are VERY dusty! I bought them as I was told they were not very bad for dust, but on a light colour rim its very bad. I can wash the rims, drive it around the block and use the brakes 4 times) and I can wipe my finger on the rims and leave a clean streak Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/25384-dba-4000-rotors/page/15/#findComment-887772 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone is interested I got them from ebay from this seller http://myworld.ebay.com.au/gemicam (just send him a message, he didn't have them listed but put them up and he also has pads as well and has been very helpful with questions) so I will hopefully have them this week some time. It ending up costing $525 for 4 new rotors and was for a BA by the way.
