Ok I have spoken to the manufacturers today and they only do the grovved discs I'm afraid.
The one thing I am worried about is that the brake discs standard are 330 x 30 and these are 330 x 32.
I am in the process of agreeing that I can try and fit a set to mine (MKII) to see if they fit correctly with the standard calipers. I assume that the MKI brake discs are the same size (anyone?)
So tomorrow I will of hopefully agreed the trial fitting - I can then get numbers and a total discount figure assuming they fit.
If those disks are 32mm wide compared to the original 30mm they should be fine so long as 1mm is taken from the face of each pad which isnt exactly a mission.
Just to give you guys some confidence re fitting/measurement - these I suspect are coming from Compbrake - they had one of my OEM discs to do the measuring prior to fabricating a set for me. The bell is not anodised on mine though...

I mentioned them in passing on my build thread; basically quality seems to be fine but as I said the bell is not annodised which may or may not be of concern.
I talked to Brett at the time about a group buy and he was very open to the suggestion but I decided not to mention it on here because until I've actually installed and used them I'd be wary about making an absolute recommendation.
They do not come assembled (at least mine did'nt) but they do come with all the parts that you need i.e. rotors, bells and screws.
I must admit I couldn't see an obvious difference between these and the K-Tec ones but there may be something that would be apparent on close inspection although there's only so much you can do with what is basically an aluminium bell and a steel rotor...
