    Don't know about cryogenics, but Bosch rotors I bought on Amazon 3 years ago are holding up extremely well as far as rust is concerned. Much better than the calipers.

    Thank you for sharing your experience and pointing me to these rotors. Here might be why:
    $57 BOSCH 50011243 QuietCast Premium Disc Brake Rotor - Compatible with Select Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, Tacoma; FRONT - Single
    Bi-metal aluminum and zinc clean-look coating/Alutherm 80 extends the life of the rotor and provides a clean look for today's open wheels

    Yep. They've been good to me, and bought them for our other cars as we needed them. Calipers? Not good.

    The Centric coated rotors seem to hold up pretty well. They sell 'Axle Packs' pretty cheap on Rock Auto. NAPA semi-loaded calipers that come painted black, and seem to hold up quite well. Just heavily grease the pistons where they meet the pads and maybe it will keep some of the water out over time...as well as the usual pad sliding areas + pins.
