What are the advantages?!

Looking into drilled/slotted rotors. Just wondering if they are worth the extra money and what's the advantages. Also. What's a good brand of rotors and pads?

Drilled and slotted rotors cool much better than traditional solid rotors. I had a 2003 EXT 4x4 trailblazer that I put oversized tires on, and my breaking suffered. I bought some drilled and slotted rotors with pads on Ebay for like $200.00 and the difference was incredible.

I did mine with an ebay kit about a month ago and initial quality has been great. Here's my thread.

I have the ebc slotted and drilled with their yellow stuff pads. Stooping power is awesome and they performed flawlessly at the track when slowing from triple digits.
