Daaamn. Those rotors are blingin! Can you post some overall pics with those wheels? I assumed that they would be closer to stock, but they have a nice lip on them!

I used red high strength high temp thread lock, and still have to re-apply to some of the studs every once in a while because they loosen when changing wheels. They have never loosened when torqued to 96 lbs. between changes, though. I think it may be a good idea to check these quite often...

Those Rotors look Awesome!!!!
I will say, loose the NT-01's.
While the price is right (lower cost) "the traction" is nothing compared to a V-710 or R6.
I am on my first set (trying to save $$) and learned the hard way.
You have spent the money where needed (brakes) don't skimp on tires, like I did and kick myself for it.

Although, I think the NT01s are right for me at this point. Remember the movie, What About Bob? with Bill Murray? Baby steps......baby steps......
