BUMP!
I have to replace rotors this week, and would appreciate the wisdom of the members of this fine board.

Thank you.

My suggestion is...save your money. Changing rotors unless you are tracking your car are a waste of cash. You'll vastly improve your braking through better pads vs any kind of blingy rotor.

Unless you're going to two piece rotors for the track there is no upgrade.

So slotted and drilled rotors don't actually increase breaking response? Seems to make sense that they might work better wet- will shed the water easier.

Slight increase in initial bite with slotted.
