Default what is better.........?

im looking into getting new front rotors and pads. the brand for rotors will be brembo and pads will be mintex. what i want to know is what is better, or what is the difference between slotted and drilled rotors?

go with blanks...

Drilled or slotted are made to dissipate heat faster. They eat pads and you're better off with a set of blanks and a good set of pads.

You might consider A8 slotted rotors+Porsche Boxster calipers conversion.

hahaha, we would all consider this if we had the money. bhj0887 is right if you arent tracking your car. for economy blanks are the best.
