Brake pads for TV

When you put ceramic pads on you need to replace rotors with drilled and slotted rotor upgrade or they will over heat and warp the stock rotors.

TO add to that , if you have the cash, replace with new calipers when you upgrade.

That whole drilled and slotted rotor thing is a farce also... Those are just to look cool, and the high end cars use them becuase people are misimformed.

People think it means performance so the car makers add them for sales thats all..

Just look at what the racing industry uses and youll get your answer.
Here is a rotor on an F1 formula car..



Here is what happens to drilled rotors from the heat..



Drilled and slotted rotors were used years ago for old technology pads ( aspestos)to release the gas coming off the pads to prolong the life of those pads.. Thats it.

We have come a long way since then. Drilled rotors today often crack because the holes promote cool/hot spots on a rotor.

Slots on rotors and thier use are for brake dust. This is already built into the pad hence the slot in the pad...

Dont buy into the hype...

Just my opinion.. Google it if you dont believe and make your own assumptions..
