Ya know i've always wondered this too. Some people say you can, others say no. I would imagine the cutting bits might chip or be damaged if they catch on a drilled hole no?

You can machine drilled rotors, it's just a bad idea. They become even weaker and more susceptible to cracks. The cutting inserts will chip if the person doing it is retarded. Slow down and it won't chip.

Nah, they call them Baer Claw brake packages.

Yeah there is somethings that I will only buy name brand on, and brake parts is one of them. Those no name rotors could be just what you pay for them, CHEAP!

I have 5 years on my PowerSlot rotors with no issues!

Yes, SSBC makes a big brake kit but it is expensive. Something like 1,800 for the front set and 1,600 for the rear set.

Also another note on the SSBC Big Brake kit, you cannot just do the rear kit by itself. Both the front and rear have to be done.
