Default Cross Drilled rotors, which is "Best"

Did a quick search this morning looking for cross drilled rotors, why you ask because they look bad ***, and they provide a little better braking performance, oh yeah and because they look bad ***.....LOL, I haven't purchased anything for my rig in two weeks and she needs a pick me up. HAHA

Anyway, I see Stop Tech and R1 Concepts make them for the GJC which also fit or trucks and believe the ST are the better ones. But please anyone running cross drilled already or not, chime in with your thoughts and comments.

Additional: would you have the rotors Cryogenic treated ????

Bought some cross-drilled/slotted rotors (R1 premium series) and pads (posi quiet ceramics) from R1 concepts which I replaced the OEMs from my wife's '06 Acura TSX last year. Braking performance was significantly much better and very little brake dust on my wheels.

Thanks for the reply, so one year later how did the black coating on the rotor hat and center fins holding up? I scotch pad and repaint all my rotors on all my vehicles within the fist few days of ownership to help cut down on the rust. I like the R1 concept Premium looks.

I know it sounds ridiculous, but one of my buddies just got Callahan rotors and pads off ebay for his titan, damn good price. I made fun of him, asked him if a eccentric fat guy driving a beat up convertible sold them to him.

All joking aside, for the price, ive heard nothing but good things about them.

Where did you get the EBC's? I can't find them on the usual sites for our DD's.

autoanything and carid and ebay all have EBC's I believe

Price wise your best bet might be stoptech's on tire rack (you can upgrade to the cryo
treated there as well, not sure if its worth it, might be since you are on the east coast..
