Those are categorically the best ones I have seen yet. I swear I saw this before, but I can't remember the great how-to. That's going on the Todo list.

Jcwhitney used to carry them. They probably still do. They sell tons of aftermarket/replacement car parts.

Pizza pans? Well I feel better about my tape and model car paint.

Major mental block...I can't figure out how they stay attached to the wheel.

There are rare times when I have to perform some repetitive heavy braking (I know, not FE friendly, but a part of some volunteer work).

I haven't heard much on the topic, but how about ventilation/cooling of the brake components? I've had warped rotors on almost every car previous -- and this one doesn't suffer that problem (finally).

I have had this problem mainly on front drive cars. More so with my domestic's. I think it stems from more from the rotors being to thin and most of all bad braking habits. I've had to turn the rotors on my saturn once already(there were warped from the PO). I also use a torque wrench on my lugnuts up front.
