both are true. think of the slots as razor blades that shave off the top layer of the pad every time you brake. it will make sure you have a clean surface on the pad everytime u brake, but also will shave down your pads faster.

yo jhendra!! which one did you get?? the $64 ones or the more expensive ones?

**jhendra83** · 07-22-2007, 07:10 AM

This is the one I got. Shipping was like $47 cuz they were heavy. I paid them on the 2nd and received them on the 16th. It took them about 3-5 days to zinc plated the rotors before shipping them out to me (via ground).

ah how big where they? how much bigger than the stock?

**jhendra83** · 07-22-2007, 11:35 AM

They are OEM size I think. I didn't really compare w/ my stock rotors but when I installed them, they just fit as when the stock were on it. I think it's OEM size performance rotors.
