Okay, I am in desperate need of new front rotors..just replaced pads to keep it running. so my rotors are cracked..due to excessive heat..like have little spider cracks all over. Should I get slotted/drilled next time to keep temps down? Or go with the $40 a rotor ones.

Any input would be appreciated..thanks
 






i did the $20 a piece rotors from napa and i am pretty impressed with them, they are oem quality, and seem to work well.
if you do lots of intense braking, drive in very high heat, or simply want better brake performance, then ya, slotted/drilled would be an improvement.
ceramic pads would also help ya out alot.
 






yea I do have ceramics on there now...but im not driving it much til i get new rotors..dont wanna tear up the brand new pads
 






Anytime you put on ceramic or high performance pads on, you definitely need new rotors.
