I have had a great experience with my Centric (Stoptech) high carbon cryo-treated plain rotors, stoptech street pads, RBF600
Pros: great experience
Went with Stoptech slotted, EBC reds, Stoptech SS lines, Stoptech STR-600 fluid.
Made a night & day difference on my non PP 15 SE.
Granted, I really push the car often in the mountains. But the change to this refresh was immediately noticeable. Fade takes a much longer time to set in. But it will still set in. There's far better options if you push it a lot.
But it's such a massive improvement over stock. Which would have fade set in almost immediately after a few harsher corners.
Pros: massive improvement, less fade
Cons: fade still occurs
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Rotors are good. Least amount of balancing machining marks I’ve seen on single piece aftermarket rotors.
Pros: good rotors, least machining marks
I used Tire Rack for Stoptech rotors. Not sure if it’s really a bonus but I sprung for the cryo-sportstop. They look great and are smooth. I wouldn’t look at Stillen rotors. They were unbalanced garbage.
Pros: look great, smooth performance
Cons: unbalanced garbage
Swapped them out for Stoptech drilled/slotted rotors and the problem was better.
Pros: problem was better
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I'm using StopTech's 1-piece drilled and cryo-treated rotors and EBC Redstuff pads and have been extremely impressed with their performance on the street.Very good braking and fairly low dust and/or noise.
Pros: very good braking, low dust
Cons: some trimming needed

Volkswagen
Green, Been Using Stop Techs Exclusively. Been using Stop Tech rotors for a long time on my MKIII.
Pros: using for a long time
I currently use StopTech Slotted rotors with Hawk Ceramic Pads and they work great for a daily driver. Initial bite isn't as good as Hawk HPS but the brake dust is low compared to stock pads and HPS.
Pros: work great daily driver
Cons: initial bite not good
I have the non cryo treated stoptech slotted rotors, they're a great affordable option. I run hawk HPS pads. You have them yourself so you know they're also a great affordable option.
Pros: great affordable option

I had StopTech sport slotted cryo-treated rotors on the front and Hawk HPS pads all around. Stopped me every time. Lack of fade coming off the freeway was amazballs. Never warped.
Pros: excellent stopping power, no fade
