new rotors

^ Pretty much the argument in a nutshell.
It's my understanding though, that the holes are supposed to dissipate heat, and the grooves help to shed brake dust. But, on a street car, the biggest benefit is the "Oooooh" factor.

Yes, those holes and grooves look nice. But he is not going to get much life out those cheap rotors before they warp. I will still go with a good solid rotor and good pads.

they may not change the performance of your car but they will definatly make it look nice which is always a bonus

whether it just helps cooling or they do grip better im sure either way the drilled/slotted rotors will help stop my car better from 130+mph if they didnt then drag brakes wouldnt come with drilled/slotted rotors. and those rotors should last just as long if not longer then stock replacement ones. made od the same material and are zinc plated.

im just sayin no matter who is right in this debate that theres a plus. if it just cools them thats a real good thing wen stopping from high speeds and if they grip better then even better. then i said they have to be good for something or they wouldnt be used for drag brake set ups. and that they r made of the same material as stock and are zinc plated.
