Thread: Opinions on cross drilled rotor choices

  1. #11
    Thanks guys.
    Kinda weird.....I posted this last week and it went nearly a week before any responses appeared. In the meantime I ordered a pair of Zimmerman rotors. My pads are nearly new. Im not sure what they are exactly, but they are painted blue so I suspect that they probably are the Pagid blues.
    I like the slotted rotors, but since I already have drilled rotors on the rear, I stuck with drilled.

    Corn,

    Sorry for not posting earlier. I went with the Crossdrilled Zimm's as well. I heard a lot of opinions on the slotted/channels or whatever they are called, vs. drilled. Seems like the drilled are more generally accepted (for hard street driving & occasional AX/TTs). I think I posted on this back in May or June, but can't find the post. I figured they are more than enough of an upgrade over stock for such a lightweight car, and are pretty tried and true. I skipped the fancy pads for now.

    Wish I could tell you how they drive, but hopefully soon.

    The slotted are better with brake ducts, which is nice to have if you DE or TT a 911.

    They cracked and look funny because they have straight veins and were never designed to be drilled.

    Just get some ATE or Brembo slotted rotors.
