I hate it when sellers try to say they manufacture a part when they’re really just ripping off another company and reselling. From the rotor thread ECS posted:

Our V4 Rotors are designed to have a double disc ground, taper free finish - this prevents run out through guaranteed parallelism and accurate disc thickness variation (DTV). This process prevents the finish from being directional, facilitating a more effective pad and rotor break in period, along with smooth, silent stopping power for the life of the rotors.

Then this is from the Centric site:

“Double disc ground, taper-free finish ensures parallelism & virtually eliminates run out & any disc thickness variation (DTV) issues, produces a non-directional finish for improved rotor / pad break-in and provides quieter and smoother stops”

It’s like they “tried” not to plagiarize but couldn’t put a little extra effort in

Didn't we learn how to not do this in school? >_>

Centric makes most everyone's rotors, not surprising to me.
