drilled are the best. and nowadays all the drilled rotors have chamfered edges so they arent crap that will crack.

go with the slotted ones. there is not that big of a difference. the drilled ones with still crack; there just less likely. u thinkin y do all the porsches have them? thats cuz the holes are actually casted into the rotors. id go with the slotted ones. plus ive been around scca racing and i see slotted rotors all over the place.

a good drilled rotor should not crack, if it does, either it was a pos or your getting too much heat into the brakes

I have the Baer slotted and crossdrilled rotors... they work great even for street driving, I have driven my car in 20 degree and below weather with them and had no problem with cracks or brake failure.... not to mention they look great...

I would higly suggest Baer rotors... cant go wrong

I'm running Power Slots with the Hawk pads and I'm very happy with what that combo for what it can do for the price. I do however have braided brake lines with synthetic brake fluid because I take the car to a high speed racetrack and actually need a bit more than the OEM has to offer. Eventually, moving into a much more serious brake combo though.
