which rotors are better, i have an option between between drilled with curved slotted rotors or drilled with straight slotted rotors. Which ones are better if there is any?

IMO there can't be any measureable difference. I'd think the drilled pattern, pads, rotor size, etc. would all make much more difference.

Get slotted if your going to be hard on your brakes or like to auto-x.

Get x-drilled for normal street use.

Rotors that offer a combination of the two are a waste of money. If anything to much material is removed from the rotor which can cause less friction between the pad and the rotor.

Friction is what stops you.
