I'd recommend holding out for real cast iron. These fit perfectly in my grill:

Interesting...those are the exact same size as my old grates. Although I'm wondering if those handles built into them are going to interfere with the lid.

And yeah, I don't quite get the coating, I would think if they were properly seasoned you wouldn't need it and would prevent the rust that WV mentioned.
