RB rotor kit install - nonPUP

[Sam1]

Sorry for being a noob...which exact kit did you get? Was it this one? Also do the rotors become silver after use or do they stay black?

RB OE Caliper BBK (355/355) for Tesla M3 (Standard Model) (P/N 2602-K & 2608-K)

That one is for if you want larger front rotors. This is the one I got.

Ok cool. I might go with the BBK version for front and rear since they’re having a sale. Can you confirm or post a pic of the rotor color? Does it stay blackish or does it turn silver?

The rotor hat you're not going to be able to see, the rotor itself is going to turn into the color of normal bare metal. they just put a coating on it to protect it from rusting during storage. Pretty much everybody puts some type of coating on them for that reason.

Can you post pictures of the rotors with the wheels on? Would love to see how they look once everything is set up. I'm now debating between MPP rotors & the RB rotors. Also what's the size comparison between RB Rotors and the stock p3d- rotors?

The rotors are the same diameter, but 1mm thicker. The rotor hat is about 0.5mm thinner. You can buy their kit that gives a larger diameter front, but it's about $600 more. Here's the front pic. Rears look the same.

Thank you! Love your build so far, looking forward to the results when you get the new wheels on!

I canceled my order for the MWO3s, he's jacking people around on ship dates and stuff. And I ordered a set of custom forged wheels that won't be in for at least a minimum of 30 to 45 days.

I have a RB 380mm BBK with brand new rotors and five sets of pads for sell if you are interested.
