A non-Spridget opinion: My Audi Quattro Turbo Coupe is horrible on rotors. Aftermarket (ventilated) would warp in no time. Factory bits almost as quickly. Cross-drilled stopped better, but ate up pads AND warped fairly quickly. They also "whistled". I recently (8k ago) added ATE "Gas Slotted" rotors. They've been worth every penny (cheaper than cross-drilled, about the same as OEM). They stop as quickly as slotted rotors, have not eaten the pads, exhibit no fade on the track, and have not (yet) warped. I'm running Pagid steet pads. If you could find somebody to replicate the grooves in a Spridget rotor, I'd give it a try. Bill Elliott Lake Mills, WI |
