This thread, https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1115139, will basically tell you why not to invest in cross drilled/slotted rotors.

Basically, slotted rotors = less heat capacity/surface area = cracking

Not only that, but they dont stop your car any better than a nice set of brembo blanks...

Correct me if im wrong guys.

Buy the highest quality for the least amount of money. blank rotors.

I would buy some 20-60 dollar front rotors for a set if they are OEM quality.

I got brembo blanks no too much bling as crossdrill/slotted, but good functionality. I love them. some day I'll add a pair of spoon calipers if I could get them to fit
