Default Re: Slotted Cross Drilled Brake Rotor Recommendations?

I'm with the for looks only crowd, unless your pads 'out-gas' the slots or holes (which are designed to break up a potential gas layer between the pads and the rotors) won't do anything for actual brake performance.

Most high performance pads don't out-gas anymore (although I have heard that Pagids do) FWIW, I tried sloted and plain rotors on my Z28 trak car with Performance Friction 93 pads and couldn't tell any diference. Now I just use plain rotors.
