    Those are some nice rotors man, just hope you don't mind changing brakes out more frequently. There are two designs for slotted rotors, the diamond cut (like those you have) and round cut like powerstop and many others. The diamond edges cut into the pads a lot more and ultimately reduce the pad life...if its not a daily driver you will be fine, but something you should know for the future at least.
