Not to start debate or flames....but I wouldn't put cross drilled rotors on
any car I own. The Holes are known to be crack propagation areas and are
outlawed by most racing sanctioning bodies. yes they are standard equipment
on may new sports cars, but look at rotor thickness. If you feel you are
doing enough spirited driving to warrant a change in the rotor, look at
upgrading pads, painting the pistons to reflect heat and making some brake
ducts for cooling. With the cross drilled/slotted you'll only wear pads twice
as fast and they won't cool any faster.

100+ every lap for 25 minutes

I had these drilled rotors bookmarked so I could get in at the last minute,
but the price got higher than Spitbits. Ebay, sometimes you win, sometimes
you lose.
