there is not much benefit to slotted/drilled rotors in most daily driving. Technically yes, there is the benefit of gas escaping much quicker, but in reality, you have to be doing alot of hard braking all the time. Also, drilled/slotted rotors are more prone to warping and eats pads like a *****.
Honestly, i suggest you look at cryo rotors if you want something woth your money. They freeze the rotor in liquid nitrogen at like 600 below freezing i think it is, and it changes the atomic structure of the rotor. In doing so, it creates a super hardened rotor which can last up to 3 times as long as a regular rotor. Cryo rotors can be around 70-120 a pop, but are well worth it in the long run IMO. I havent bought them yet, but i promised myself that i would as an upgrade to my next newest car.
If you want to go for a style or look, then slotted/drilled is for you. Also, you want to try and keep everything uniform on your car. u want new rotors, change all 4, not just two. When you do **** like that,, you start ****ing with the mechanics of the car. You may be fortunate and luck aout and not have any issues, but i have ****ed and d!ck around with my carr enough to know that a stock and well balanced use is sometimes best. This is just my couple cents, use it as you wish and i hope it helped
