Drilled always looks better IMHO, but slotted is a better design for actual braking improvements.

Ask them if they can "dimple" a slotted rotor. The dimples look like holes when they fill with dust, but don't sacrifice the structural integrity of the rotors. Our EBC rotors do this. Check out at: I would not buy drilled if you see any track time. Slots work better to keep the pad trued, too....

I ended up going slottled & Dimpled. Drilling is a bad Idea per the expert Bill at Frozen rotors. He actually had made that an option last night. I was pretty set on the cross drilled though.

He has a 2nd set there at the shop ready to be cut and treated.

*Correction*
For $850 + shipping UPS Ground ($40-60)

You have your choice of two options A. slot or B. dimple and slot the rotors. Of course the Cryotreating. We need 10 sets to get this rate.

I am going to High temp the hubs black when they arrive.

Nickel plating is $18 to strip the ****ty Paint and $35 to nickle plate each. that gets expensive.
