Anyone use these Rotors/Brakes?

I have the R1 Concept Geomet slotted/drilled rotors with Wagner pads. It was a night and day difference. The truck stops pretty quickly now. I have had them on for a couple years and they haven't showed any rust so far. Granted I don't drive a lot.

I generally buy rotors from Advance or Oreilly's. Advance seems to have a better coating on their rotor centers, but OReilly's isn't too bad either.

Pads I typically buy AC/Delco's if it's a GM, and/or Raybestos or Wagners if an OEM isn't available ..from RockAuto. The ORielly pads I've used for years literally rust off the backing plate around here. I would take them back and they would replace them no questions asked (which was nice). But I stopped buying those particular car-model pads. But different year/model pad applications might use different type of adhesion from OReilly's, I can't say. But for the ones I was buying they'd rust off in 2-3 yrs.

For like classic cars, I like to buy new-old-stock (quality) pads off ebay a lot of times ...the ones where the pad is riveted to the backing plate. They don't cost any more than other places, and the riveted pads never fall off the backing plate. And the backing plates on the older products were yellow-zinc cad plated which lasts a long time.

I've bought the medium to higher end pads over the years from most parts stores. They all worked just fine IMO.
