On a side note, did you use the 980100 rotor for the front? From pictures it looks like this is only drilled and not slotted and does not have the black center on it like the 555. I'm somewhat OCD about matching so just wanted to get as close as possible using the same brand.
Thanks!
I had a frustrating time locating rear rotors for this application and finally stumbeled upon the affordable Raybestos 980555. These are not zinc plated but are painted in the non-frictional areas and have 3 slots only as to not cause structural weakness, ligning up with vanes. That is not an issue with the front rotors. There are other choices if you dont mind paying over $300 a set.
I used SRT6 front rotors from R1concept. Expect to pay over $200 a pair for drilled, slotted and plated rotors.
Last 2 pics show how I trimmed the splash shield and caliper position in relation to rotor
Good luck with your shopping and let me know if you are buying from R1concepts. I have a 15% off redemption code I can PM you
