[Shotimes] WTB rotors for brake upgrade

[Ron Porter]

The Porsche rotors are made with the holes in them, so they last longer than
the regular aftermarket drilled ones.

At any rate, it is a "looks" thing for any car. If you do track work,
grooved rotors actually have a benefit, and will outlast drilled rotors. For
street use, holes or grooves are purely a "looks" thing.

cross drilled rotors crack. Unless you plan on
replacing them often, I would not spend the money on
them. Porsche's come from the factory with them but
many PCA guys end up replacing the rotors a few times
a season and/or switching to non drilled rotors.
