Might crack, drilled rotors are known for cracking, why not just use blanks?

Best rotors to get IMO are brembo blanks. They will be about the same price.

^Group deal, IF you want the slotted one, at least get authentic brembos, you can also find other GDs with zinc covered brembo blanks.

best rotors to get are arguably DBA, but you gotta pay to play with those

+1 on the brembo blanks. For the money they're the best thing going. Use the group buy or google them to find the best price. There are some deals out there.

Forget about the cheap Auto Zone rotors or any cheap no name rotor. There are differences in the hardness of the metal. The cheap ones may look the same but they'll wear out a lot faster than quality rotors. The brembo blanks will outlast the no name rotors several times. You'll spend a lot more replacing cheap rotors in the long run.

ATE slotted rotors RULE!! These are the sweetest dam rotors I've ever driven. I've got 40K miles on mine with ceramic pads with no fade, no warpage, and the rotors have yet to show any rust on the painted parts.
