EBC SuperSport Race Rotors
• Lightest weight units available
• OD cooling groove further reduces weight/improves cooling
• Light weight alloy drive buttons
• Fully rebuildable with spare hardware
Larger diameter homes, extra sets of holes and the OD cooling groove, bring down the weights once again on this popular range of supersport/race rotors. These rotors are NOT FOR HIGHWAY USE. Due to the carefully controlled environment of road racing, EBC actually use a circlip retention system (with a difference) on Pro-lite front discs.
The EBC circlip is a specially manufactured unit, which offers a 340-degree contact surface, as opposed to the minimal contact used by cheaper “gearbox” circlips, used by EBC’s competitors.

I've got the same 320mm rotors on my shawk.

Actually I've never heard of anyone else having them!
Powerfull stopping power huh?
Mine have quite a lot of play as well , think it's normal for these rotors.
after a while the spring washers seem to lose tension or wear.
the rotors start to make some noise, and later I had to replace the the rotors due to carrier wear (soft aluminum carriers)
~Jeffers
I remember now!
As the carriers wore and got more play, they started wearing even faster and hammering the soft carriers more.
so I started trying creative ideas to tighten them up.
But ended up replaceing the carriers in the end.

Doubt you'll see this though, I think these rotors had like 60,000 miles on them before they got this bad.
