Inspection last month... was told my rotors will need replacing soon.  I'm looking at some slotted, maybe drilled rotors to replace my factory rotors with.  Anyone have experiences with these types of rotors they can share?  I've not used slotted/drilled rotors before...  Are they anything special?

I went to slotted/drilled on my WJ and they have helped with fade a little bit.  They don't stay hot as long as stock.  disipate heat bette.

I posted this up on MarylandJeepClub too and got a lot of feedback there.  I ended up going with SBC Yellow pads and Centric Premium rotors.

I got feedback that the sloted/drilled rotors are not as good for Wheeling since they can hold dirt and are more for performance applications.

So, I'll give these a shot.

Thanks!
