Yes.....I have also noticed that I don’t get brake fade after multiple hard stops, and the pads last a little longer.

I would be more than happy to get you a price on them if you would like. The ones I get are from a company call auto specialties, they are an OEM rotor that they have machined on their press. Nice rotor, great deal IMO

i still believe in the slotted rotors... cross-drilling just sounds like a risk... but hey.. its your vehicle you do what you want... if it works.. more power to ya.

Most Mercedes Benz SL's, Ferrari 360 Modena, Ferrari Enzo, Porsche, and some Audi's come with cross drilled rotors. If its good enough for them, its good enough for me.
