Yea I just might have to. Slotted looks better and won't crack up. I'll keep looking around though, thanks

slotted and vented are different... slotted are holes on the surface just like crossdrilled... vented are holes on the outside edge (non-contact edge).

Yes make sure you know what you are talking about.

With that the slots are not HOLES more like grooves in the surface.

Yea I know the difference btween slotted & vented. I was just sayin that I might have to settle 4 vented if i can't find brembo slotted. But I'd rather have slotted. Or any good slotted rotor, if anyone recommends one

slotted can't be turned, like drilled can't be turned... and sometimes if you go cheapo brand, the slots/drilled holes/whatever aren't done precise so that the rotor ends up heating unevenly when you use them hard.

did that make sense? Sorry it's 4am
