I would stick with the OEM-type rotors. Actually, I would buy rotors at an auto parts store that meet OEM specifications rather than pay the high price for OEM rotors. In either case, drilled and/or slotted brake rotors can't be turned (resurfaced). So when they warp, or as soon as you put on a new set of pads, you will have to replace the. Drilled rotors only came about for weight savings in some racing series and found there way to the street seen since they looked cool.They actually worsen braking performance and are prone to cracking. Look at all the big racing leagues,none use drilled rotors and a few may use slotted rotors on some tracks but otherwise they use solid rotor.

The first benefit of drilled rotors is their ability to dissipate heat. Heat builds up when you press down on your brakes and the drilled holes provide an outlet for that heat to dissipate. If too much heat builds up, it might cause your brakes to perform poorly over time, or wear down faster. The second benefit has to do with water.

Cross drilled rotors are like gigantic cheese graters. Yeah it makes your rotors cool off faster, but they also reduce your pad life and make a hell of a lot of noise. They also have a higher tendency to warp. Slotted rotors help release gases trapped below the pads, basically wiping them clean every pass. I've got a '98 528i, sport package, manual tranny and my rotors front and rear are nearing replacement. I am thinking about going to cross drilled and slotted/cross drilled rotors to see if it improves my braking.

#3 · Jun 11, 2013 (Edited) Drilled and slotted are definitely a BETTER rotor than stock. But, think about what they do. They are drilled and slotted to vent gas and get rid of heat quickly. If you have EVER heated your stock brakes to where the fluid in the calipers becomes a GAS, then you NEED THESE. EBC is garbage. You want to invest in cast iron rotors (the name brand ones) and heavy duty metallic pads, not just semi metallic. Drilled rotors are counter productive, as are ceramic or organic brake pads on a vehicle that tows. Metallic pads have above 50% metal content in them which means they stop better and last longer.

Disc brake rotors are found on the majority of modern cars. Some come with only front discs while others feature all four.

As I said, the rotors too were replaced with smooth OEM style rotors this time (NOT drilled and slotted). Obviously the front rotors were warped and shook violently, to say the least. It is definitely smooth as glass now. Finally, my question I want to ask the Ody community is this: Although I know and have read, that the front pads and rotors. Mike Skelly of Wilwood offered us a little history on the origin of drilled rotors. As road racing tires allowed greater track speeds in the 1960s, race teams began seeing a great loss in brake capability. In that era of organic and asbestos based pad friction material, a problem occurred with the adhesives used to fasten the pad to the steel backing plates.

How to Choose Brake Rotors: Blank vs Drilled and Slotted vs Drilled.
A good set of trailer brakes is the SAFEST way to ASSIST the truck while towing. You can add all the brakes in the world with slotted, drilled, gold/asbestos/titanium alloy rotors and ceramic, "take-more-heat-than-the-sun-puts-out" brake pads on a truck. But bottom line, you need to compromise BOTH Good Braking on Truck AND Trailer. When it was time for our Liberty's first brake job, I thought it would be a good idea to install drilled and slotted rotors specifically with towing in-mind. The brakes when new performed exceptionally well, but that was short lived. Once rust formed beyond the tapered drilled holes and slots, braking performance suffered. I've always been extremely skeptical of performance rotors, especially oem ones or oem-like ones that are just drilled and slotted and marked up $200 bucks. my issue with them is that they are weakening an oem rotor by drilling it. the company (including adams rotors, ecs, etc) does not redesign the internal vanes for more efficient cooling or additional structural enhancements.
Drilled and Slotted? - Chevy SSR Forum.
Cross drilled and/or slotted have less braking surface so they actually will perform worse with stock calipers. You won’t be able to tell the difference be they would be a little bit worse under a controlled test environment. To go cross drilled and slotted correctly, you also need to go to bigger/high performance calipers to overcome that. 21,630 Posts. #9 · Apr 26, 2011 (Edited) Using the brakes wastes gasoline - you're effectively turning it into brake dust.
