drilled rotors are just pure bling. they warp and crack under high temp. just go for slotted boys.

really?? ..... hrrmmm i guess slotted is tha way 2 go... thank u father! loll

[yourfather]

well, it is good to get rid of some of the gases built up from heavy braking. once upon a time the idea was to put holes in the rotors to aid cooling and get rid of the gas problem, but they are crack prone because the metal isn't as strong. especially if you like to give them a bit of schtick.

ahh ok fair enuf ... so even sumthin as expensive as the Brembos or DBA rotors are prone ot cracking ??? i wuldve thought that bcoz the rotors are designed to with stand heavy or extreme braking it should be ok ??

[pornstar]

nope, brembos are cast into them

dba ive never had one crack...

theres other cheaper brands that do the same job.

if slotted and drilled rotors are good for ferrari's and porche's then it'll be good for your accord.

those in ferrari's or porsche are cast

that sounds so dumb :p

If they are cross drilled, they will probably crack on the track. The ones on porsches and ferraris use discs that are cast with the holes and don't crack.
