[QUOTE="Chris@FreedomMotorsports, post: 1184772, member: 8341"] Good morning folks. The R1Concepts Premier Series rotors are a rotor that they are phasing out in favor of offering the Geomet rotors. The basic design of the rotors themselves is the same with the G3500 high carbon metallic material verses the cast iron of the G3000 rated Eline series. The biggest difference between the Premier series and Geomet series rotors is the coating itself. R1Concepts is continually doing R&D in an effort to further improve the products they offer and after their research, they found that the Geomet coating is more corrosion resistant than the Premier series black electrocoat (which was already an awesome coating). One other difference is the fact that the Premier series rotors came with the center hubs and outer edges being coated, so if you live in northern climates, you would have to specifically request the rotors be fully coated for the best protection. The new Geomet coated rotors are fully coated by default so no special consideration has to be made there. Right now, we CAN still get the Premier series rotors. I can get products from R1 that they no longer offer through their website or to the mass public due to my longstanding relationship with them. I personally have not tested the Geomet rotors yet. We have a full package on it's way as we speak for installation and testing. But my experience with the Premier series rotors goes back to 2009 and through my testing of the same package on 1/2, 3/4 and 1 ton gas and diesel pickups for all kinds of operating conditions and they have performed flawlessly in that time. More so than any other brand tested. The Geomet offering is so new that I need to confirm the pricing of those with my rep before I offer a shipped quote on them. He doesn't get into his office until later in the morning Pacific time since he works into the evening hours. As soon as I can speak to him on the phone to confirm the pricing of the Geomet rotor package I will get back with you on that. [/QUOTE]
