You're doing well just to find rotors, let alone cross drilled and slotted.

Good God why? It's marketing hype. The only vehicles that use cross drilled rotors from the factory have oversized rotors to offset the loss of mass. Taking heat sinking mass from stock sized brake rotors on any Chrysler product to include the Viper is asinine. If you want cooler brakes you're going to have to duct air to them. Painting your brakes bright colors and drilling pretty patterns of holes in the rotors should be accompanied by a sideways hat and a sign from Bill Engvall.

I wasn't going to say anything, but these other guys are right. There is no valid reason to drill or slot your rotors.

Unless you like cracked rotors (think "Connect-the-dots") peeking out from your rims...or unturnable ones! :roll:

So you want to play good cop for a while and I'll take bad?
