    Kind of controversial...

    The cross drilled/slotted rotors dissipate heat but actually increase stopping distance due to less surface area. Also there's an argument that being cross drilled or slotted messes with the integrity. I guess it just depends on what you're going to be using the car for. I know some people that have used them and are fine, others won't touch them. If money is an issue there's only one way to find out..

    My Concern is if these brakes are safe. That last thing i need is for my breaks to give out. I dont know if anyone has had personal experience with this company or not.

    If they are selling cheap and new, there is always a reason. They may look nice now, but one year from now they are rusted and warped. Buy from a trusted company/brand.

    you will be fine, i would getting slotted only tho, i have tried the slotted/drilled on my 06 eclipse gt and it actually didn't look that good, slotted alone is just fine.

    I have the stoptech rotors for the front only cause i got them for 100 brand new cause their retail price is outrages. for that deal on ebay, i would jump all over it, i might just find out how much just for 2 rear rotors no pads.
