So its time for some new brake disks for the front of my car. I am planning on buying some Brembo ones. However I am trying to decide if slotted rotors are worth the extra $150 dollars. I mean sure they look nice, but its not like I will be running the 24 hours of Le Mans and my brakes will fade on me. Plus I've heard that slotted and or drilled rotors tend to chew up break pads faster, is this true? Or should I just buy the regular set of Brembo discs for $40. Any help would be great!

 

The drilled ones tend to crack easier. I've heard arguements made for both sides, that the slotted are better and the slotted are not different. I would get them cause they look better.

 

if your interested i can take pics of mine on my si with stock rims tomorrow you can see what the'd look like then

 

check out www.fastbrakes.com they have have some really good deals on brembo parts

 

Ok, so I decided to go with the Brembo slotted rottors. I did not want to deal with the whole cracking/warping and pad chewing of the drilled rotors, and the slotted rotors offer better performance and looks than the basic rotors for only $80 more. I bought mine off of tirerack.com for $160. And yeah, MY99SI that would be sweat if you could post some pics.

 

i'll go take them tomorrow if its not raining again

ive got the brembo drilled and slotted rotors that i'll post tomorrow if possible

want them in an e-mail or anything jus lemme know

 

sounds good, just post them on here, I'm sure the other guys wouldn't mind seeing them ether.
