Who makes FD slotted/drilled rotors?

I have been looking for a good set of slotted rotors for my FD. The problem is everything i find is only for the front, brembo, ebc, powerslot. I found one company called powerstop that makes slotted rotors for the front and rear, but I don't really like those. I want the slotted rotors more for cosmetic. I don't take it on the track, I just like the way they look. I liked the ones from ebcbrakes, they have a slotted and dimpled rotor, but only for the front. I have searched on the forum, but have had know luck finding any info. If anyone has any information, I would really appreciate it.

Why would those be for non-track use only?

While rotors in general are just rotors typically, the metal they are made with is not always the same. This is why some rotors hold up better to the heat/stress of road courses and some don't. While I have no evidence to support that these are not 'directly' track capable, I generally suggest blanks for track usage.

Hey there,

We offer Racingbrake rotors as an option for FD;s.

If you want aesthetics than the RB ones have a black painted rotor hat that won't get that rusty look to it. This is a huge plus.

Take a look, if you like what you see send me a PM. We're running XMAS Specials on RB Products right now.

Here's the link to their one piece rotors. Pretty standard, but with black hat.

Now for the trick stuff:

RB Has the really cool 2 Piece rotor:
