I found them on this website

It says they are made by a company called 'Rotor' but I cant find a website, can anyone else?

i've seen some crazy rotor designs for motorcycles, but those kind of look tacky

 

[WooSAABy]

dont know, they might look kinda ok if they were massive and behind some nice rims.

Only a three bolt rim

Must be for a very small car since the rim attaches with only three bolts. Maybe for a motorcycle?

Nope, not a motorcycle. These apparently are designed for a SMART car, although the SMART service guides on the Evilution web site show drum brakes. Strange..........

Is this a Drum Cover to make people think the car has disc brakes? The disc seems to appear curved, at a radius to match the drum curvature of the SMART.

Wavy rotors have been around for years on mountainbikes, partially for thier cooling ability but also because they clear mud quicker.

These car discs are pretty common on ebay, itd be pretty interesting to try them!

Eventually, I'll need brake discs. At first, I was attracted to drilled rotors but I don't think they offer any benefit and are cosmetic only. Maybe slotted rotors may be slightly better.

Any rotor recommendations? Or just use stock rotors? I have vented disc front and rear, which I like.

i actualy saw a set for sale that fit the saab 9-3 it was on some british auto anything site

The benefits of a wave type rotor are more even pad wear, improved cooling/cleaning, decreased unsprung weight, and more biting edge at the outer edge of the disk. They work well on the bikes, ie, motocross and sportbikes and I'm sure MTB.

Like these?

 

[Aleki]

well, more like this

It looks very nice when the car is in motion. I feel like the saw blades would look a little funny when rolling

actually the brakes on the noble m12 are only 330mm behind 18" rims. Mine pictured above are 345mm behind 17" rims.

My hat goes off to you sir. Was it difficult/expensive to upgrade?
I feel like the big difference between your car and the one I posted is the tire wall height. The brakes appear small to me because of the ratio of the two.
