I switched from OEM rotors to Girodisc on my 997.1 at the end of the year last year because I wanted something that would hold up better with PFC08's. I just finished my 16th day on them, and I'm not exactly easy on brakes either. I'm impressed they have lasted as long as they have. I'm going to order new ones but have another track day coming up in a couple weeks and am traveling in between and don't have time to change them out.
Obviously there are a lot of cracks and the vanes are almost flush. The cracks are not extending out to the end of the rotors. Do these look like I can squeeze another day out of them?

Thanks for the responses. I was at THill Sat and Sun, and the brakes stiff felt great. I'll go with the consensus and change them out. As I mentioned before, the Girodisc was a big improvement over the OEM, and I'll never complain about getting 16 hard days out of them. As for as pads, is the PFC08 still a good option? I know they are hard on rotors but really like the way they feel.

I think if you measure them you'd be at min thickness anyway, time to replace. We do have the rings and no charge hardware packs to ship to you. And of course 08s, 29s or Ferodo pads as well.
