Brembo blanks are only $55 but still excellent quality. I run these and it's a fine combination. I would never trust a $55 slotted rotor.

Slotted rotors are silly on this car. Like putting sneakers on an old lady in a wheelchair.

Although they are weaker than blanks, I"ve heard slotted rotors dont crack as easily as drilled ones. It also vents your pads very well to reduce pad fade.

they are weaker than the blank ones? how? is it because it has less material after its slotted or drilled?

you don't need slotted or cross drilled rotors. Blanks do just fine.
