[Shotimes] WTB rotors for brake upgrade

[Paul Nimz]

I agree 100%.  And here is another thing for those that complain about rotors.
Using a more abrasive pad (grippier) will use up the rotor faster.  Still,
especially for the GEN 3 brakes, are OEM pads and rotors for long life and
excellent performance.  Ford seemed to have gotten this right.
