Anodized rotors doesn't prevent warping. That's the biggest bunch of bs I have ever heard.
Warping is caused by several things:
1) braking hard for long intervals (like riding your brakes) and then coming to a stop while your brakes are super hot and leave the pads on the rotors. This causes uneven cooling of your rotors.
2) braking for long intervals and then spraying the rotors with water
3) improperly bedded brake pads
4) an unbalanced wheel can indirectly affect the braking of your car since the wheel is out of balance the rotor will brake unevenly.
