Um, I think slotted are better for hard braking because of more surface area and cross-drilled are more for racing applications bcuz they dissipate heat quicker. | |

You could always get a combination of slotted & cross-drilled......that's what I'm looking at, although they run about $100 a piece, so I'm looking at $500+ in just brakes. Unless anyone else knows a good place to get them cheaper.

That would be a good idea. I think slotted for the front and cross drilled for the back would be the best combo | |

OOOOOOOOOOOOh. I see. I dont know what the point of those are. SLotted serves one purpose, CD serves another, put them together and I dont know if that makes much sense. | |

well, essentially, you would get the power of the slotted, and the cooling power from the cross-drilled.

How would you get the power of slotted when there are holes. That's where the power come from: the solid design. You would have the cooling witht he holes but those same wholes would defeat the purpose of the slots. C what im sayin
-dont ask me why but this conversation over brakes is giving me deja vu  | |

I thought that the power came from the solid design too. Are we just wrong? | |
