For a daily driver, drilled/slotted rotors are a gimmick and purely for looks IMO.
In my experience, warped rotors usually mean you have a caliper problem--either piston or slide pins binding/sticking. Maybe that's not always the case as you get farther south where they don't use as much salt to treat winter roads. Rear calipers seem to give more trouble than front, I assume because they catch more spray coming from the front wheels and don't move as much since the front axle does most of the braking.
No experience with drilled/slotted rotors, but usually here they get warped because someone gets ugga dugga wild with the impact instead of torquing to 100# like you’re supposed to. |
