Drivers report excellent performance over 20,000+ miles when proper break-in procedures are followed. The drilled and slotted design provides effective cooling for spirited driving, though some brake experts caution that drilled/slotted rotors can wear pads faster and have higher crack potential compared to blank rotors.
