Stoptech slotted sport rotors; directional vanes?

Anyone know off hand if the Stoptech slotted sport rotors in the Evo X rear size have directional vanes?


I was looking at the Stoptech slotted sport rotors vs. Hawk quiet slot for rear rotor on an Evo X used on weekends and track days.


No big price difference between them, if the Stoptechs have directional vanes, I'd be inclined to go with them, otherwise I'll stick with Hawk. Would love Girodisc 2-piece, but can't justify the price for my use..


Thanks in advance.

Given that rear rotors on a car with an e-brake car rarely breath, why does it matter?

Granted, it won’t make much, if any, difference. I was curious since the Stoptech/Centric info I found said some (most?) of the Stoptech Sport rotors had directional vanes, but didn’t specify if the ones for the Evo were vaned. I’m also going on the (quite possibly false) assumption that if they bothered to cast them with directional vanes they may have used a better grade of metal…

StopTech makes a slotted cryo treated rotor if you are worried about heat

Well, just to answer my own question (the stoptech rotors arrived from tirerack), the ones for the Evo X are ordinary pillar vanes, not directional vanes (rotors are still labeled as right and left due to slotting orientation)
