They make oversized ones in the case if you are rollin on 18" wheels?

Stainless lines are sweet. Pedal feel is way more firm and no mush...and you stop better too as well as they won't crack like rubber. I have them from Earls on the Ford.

doesn't drilling holes in stock rotors compromise the rotor's strength?

Probably somewhat in an all out scenario. I have drilled rotors on my F150 for close to 10K mi now...no cracks or anything adverse. They seem to be more resistant to fade and heavy braking.

I prefer drilled as if you turn the rotors with slotted, the slots get shallower where on the drilled, the holes are always there.

Stainless lines are just great, makes the feeling much more solid!

hitmanX, thats good to know that even with our heavy trucks you've experienced no hole to hole cracking. Have you had to turn the rotors since they've been drilled? and if so who did you trust to do it?
