Hey, does anyone know how the Centric "GCX" rotors compare to their normal "Premium" rotors?
Centric brake rotor comparison?

Beyond the different, arguably better coating, the rotors themselves look to be entirely the same. And that's good.
The 120 Premium Rotors are priced higher than the 320 GCX Rotors...
I have the premiums on my mr2 right now. Quality part.
The GCX is probably the same as Napa's premium rotors with that Geomet coating. I believe Akebono rotors might be the same as well.
As to which coating is better, I can't say. But the Centric Premium rotors I can vouch for.

What does the "GCX" represent?

As an acronym? Maybe Geomet Coated "X"
I have found through my own experiences, Geomet coating doesn't hold up as well as the Premium's E-coat.

Makes no mention of an "upgraded alloy" like the Power Alloy in the Sport Rotors, so the GCX sounds like the Centric Premium with a less expensive coating process
