right it also leaves you with less area to make cntact wih the rotor thi disiparing less heat this stopping you slower.

the only time you should get drilled or sloed rotors is if you are going to use an organic based High preformancec pad then you have to relive the gases that these produce.

when you put the rotors on a lathe and cut the surface back to a smooth finish; usually done with a full brake job - or if your pads cut a groove into the rotor face

with drilled or slotted, the lathe blade would hang up on the holes - and possibly break, so you can't turn those types of rotors.

Yeah I am, and they suck *** LOL

Just runing them until I get around to having some extra $ to get vented... which is after tires and a clutch

The left rear sounds like a grinder when I slow down, and the right front has half of it looking like grated cheese. But hey, they work for now.

Powerstop = waste of my $.

yes it is... here's a random I found on Ebay:



there's the drilled holes, the slots on the surface, and the vents on the edge.

like said before the use of slotted rotors are to dispures gas made by high contact pads... vented works better because they can be turned (correct me if i'm wrong) and slotted cant be.
