So.....slotted/cross drilled rotors????
Are these worth it, ws6store is running a good deal on these. Just wondering if these plus some new better pads will increase my braking performance noticeably. Plus, they do look pretty good.

chupr0kabra (chupacabra?) is right, don't get them if you're expecting a high performance braking system. Solid rotors are best for absorbing heat when applying your brakes. If you want your cars brakes to look pretty, then they're for you. The drilled/slotted rotors are more prone to develop stress cracks though... If you want a more effective braking system, upgrade to larger front rotors (C5 upgrade) and better pads.
