Default There really are no benefits. 30 years ago, there would have been a benefit. Today it's mostly...
just the "bling" factor.

Default Hmm...maybe less chance of cracking from heavy track use, yet still looks cool...
for the slotted/cross-drilled combo rotor vs. cross drilled only. Otherwise, go towards slotted only if the prices for the slotted/cross-drilled rotor is much more expensive. Wow, did that sound confusing enough? LOL!

I went with these new fangled "solid" rotors. Really cool. No holes or gouges. Just rotor! :-]
