Will ashimi rotors work with most brake systems?

i have shimano xt brakes, but i don't use the centerlock rotors supplied so im looking for some 6 bolt rotors.

and also can anyone review the ashimi rotors?

cheers

    Yes mate, no problem.

    I bought mine back in June to replace my original 160mm Shimano RT61 rotors.
    My Shimano rotors/shimano organic pads where very prone to fading on long decents.

    Since I upgraded the rotors to 180mm front and 160mm rear and replaced the pads with superstar organic the issue has gone away and my confidence has been restored.

    The pad wear rate has been nothing like I was told to expect and I would happily fit them to a second bike.
