Your using 23 year old brake discs ??? Do you call that "seasoned" ??
they are seasoned, all right ! stress-relieved and all :-) ...
i think they might have 1000 mi on them since new tho. only very light surface rust, it'll sand off easily.
i pulled the complete front hubs, and i'm putting in new bearings and grease seals today; if there are any issues, i can pop the original hubs right back on. the backs are an easy swap.
BTW - i did remember correctly - there was a 3mm aluminum spacer between the rear hub face and the inner disk mounting surface to center the disk in the widened caliper.
so - are you just giving me a hard time because i can finally use some parts i've had stored for a long time, or is there some issue with "old" metal i should know about ? i bet there are lots of guys who've had the same disks on their cars for 30 years ... (low mileage cars, just like mine ...)
