Pics of FCS with Cross Drilled Rotors
Thinking of changing my rotors to this.

Why Do you experience fade? You race a lot? Drilled or slotted rotors tend not to last as long because they develope cracks in the drilled or slotted areas.

my rims are not solid, and you can see the rotor, for appearance purposes i was thinking of putting cross drilled rotors, but if they do crack, no sense of the rotors then
|
who makes a good slotted rotor (lower price) anyhow?

The only reason that a cross drilled brake cracks is because the holes are drilled, not part of the casting. Porsches brakes are cross drilled, but they are actually designed as part of the brake from the beggining. They are not drilled in a sense, but are part of the casting.
Stick to quality stuff and you shouldn't have a problem with craking. And a good lower cost slotted rotor is Rotora. I know plenty people who run them and have no problems. |
the holes are supposed to reduce tempeartures but act like razors.
|
drilled rotors are bad, slotted rotors have a place.

Adding slots or holes was intended to let these gases escape. With modern brake pads, these gases do not exist. Look at F1, or any major racing league.. they all use solid rotors.

i have slotted and drilled rotors on all 4 corners.......but its only on there cause they were 125 for 4 off ebay......i couldnt find a solid replacement anywhere for that price......
