what benefits did you notice with slotted rotors over standard rotors?

Brands may differ but according to Brembo's site you have them on backwards.

It really depends on how you wanna do it and what you believe.

By putting the rotor on with the slots like this \:\: it is believed that when the rotor heats up, the directional spin forces the heat out from the center of the rotor, thus believed to be cooling it better and faster.

By putting the rotor with the slots like /:/: they turn in the direction that the wheels are spinning, thus bringing all the heat and forcing it towards the center of the rotor, thus making it hotter in the middle, rather than expelling it outwards completely.

To me, I would've done it the first way, but whichever way your comfortable with then thats all that matters. Hopefully you guys understood my explanation

Hmmmm the first one with the heat going out keeping the rotor cooler seems more logic to me....thats how mine are....

What do you guys think??

Look Here http://hp.brembo.com/pdf/Disc_Direction.pdf


From Brembo.com
all of Brembo's slotted discs are directional as well, regardless of the vane geometry. The discs should be installed such that the end of the slot nearest the outer edge of the disc contacts the pad first
