    Whose got Slotted/Cross Drilled Rotors?

    I'm in the market of buying replacement ROTORS for my ride, the ones I have now are oem and cannot be resurface anymore. I am looking for something reasonable with etheir slotted or cross drilled design.

      why do you need slotted or cross drilled? bling factor? i'd go with oem blanks (brembro or centrix).

        Blanks.

        And don't turn your rotors. They are already skinny enough.

          Get blanks. Cross-drilled can crack from the holes in them.

            And slots will accelerate the pad wear.

                      Are you fucking retarded or just arrogant? I was merely stating something I was about to do to my brake system to contribute to the thread and see if my results would be of some service. Fucking trolling? Your the lil bitch that's trolling you cock eyed waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles. Oh and btw I don't see how I'm bombing on Lee's input from having a different set of rotors then what he run's (I don't even have a problem with him).

                        I have cross-drilled on my car now and they are cracked so I am getting Brembo blanks. Thanks to kish and others who have informed me that cross-drilled are NOT the best thing for a street car

                          When did you install them?

                            With my first e30 I had them and the second track day I went too (4 months of having them) they cracked.

                            This being my second e30 I will never buy them again. Just get brembo blanks or if you have e30 m3 5-lug evo rotors.

                              +1 for blanks! i had cross drilled rotors once and never had any problems, but it isn't worth the risk.
