caramall2 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Gimmicky...just order some rotors from Brakeswap (OEM style or DBA4000) or even RB's one piece rotors (they're supposed to be decent). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZP Installs Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Drilled are cool if you are in the HIN crowd. If you want true performance, smooth or slotted are the way to go. -mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamal Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 and you think that isn't for looks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilT Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 and you think that isn't for looks? Did I say it wasn't for looks ? I said that it doesn't look like it belongs at HIN How many people on this forum replaced their stock wheels with aftermarket ones which are actually heavier than stock ? Looks are pretty important to most people, but there is a difference to the HIN crowd and classy mods.

caramall2 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Sorry, but anyone offering "designer holes" is gimmicky...I'd steer clear. Things like J-slots actually came from research. You're right though that lots of high end car manufacurers offer drilled--again, probably a lot for looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right though that lots of high end car manufacurers offer drilled--again, probably a lot for looks. Most of those higher end ones are actually cast holes. Up until about 5 years ago most tracks in the US would not allow you to run any form of drilled rotors unless they were cast in or OEM. -mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magnetic1 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Not to mention... some of those designs HAVE to have some impact on the cooling vanes. Also anyone claiming x-drilled holes are for heat dissipation are FOOLS. Free Sonax Cleaner Deal http://www.brakeswap.com Carbotech, Hawk, PFC, DBA Rotors, Motul, Wilwood, Castrol... Great service.
