While cruisin' the web, I ran across this one...cryogenically treated brake rotors...and they have them for 850's !!

For those of you who are not familiar with this process, metal parts are slowly cooled to cryogenic temperatures and then re-warmed and heat tempered. Using computer control, the material properties of the metal are significantly improved. Technical reports I've seen say that if done properly, this process can work wonders. I do not know about the reputation of this firm, but the whole idea is intriquing and curious.

See what you can find just a few clicks away! :-)


Regards to all,
