Looking for $3200. I keep typing the price in and it didn't want to save.

Are you selling the scoops and ducts?

Do you have the thickness measurement of the rotor?

I hadn’t planned on it.

With my crappy vernier calipers I measured both at 33.1 mm thickness.

On these rotors, is the max wear also 1.6mm as for the OEM?

A quick search found that AP Racing recommends 1.5mm, and these are 34mm new, so another .6mm or so to go. That's shockingly little wear considering I chewed through 1.5 sets of DTC-70s during 11 days on track, and about 10,000 km of autostrada driving on DS2500s.

Any bedding required when switching from DTC-70 to DS2500 and back?

What brake pads did you run in the stock rear calipers with the DTC-70 Fronts? Did the rear calipers change color from blue? Thanks!

All good questions.

Bedding is absolutely required after swapping in the DTC-70s, but nothing more than a few trips to 60 MPH and moderate braking until nearly stopped. When reinstalling the DS2500s I didn't bother because I could do it on the drive home. Neither chewed up the rotors.

I used DS2500s in the stock rear calipers. They didn't change color, nor ever pop a temp strip bubble, because they don't work very hard and I had lots of airflow to the calipers.
