Any rotor that is drilled after the casting of the rotor is completed is prone to having cracks form around the holes.

This can seriously comprmise the integrity of the rotor.

If these rotors are cast with the holes already in them (highly unlikely), they might be worth considering.

Otherwise, stick with a rotor that is just slotted or possibly "dimpled" as well.

What your main concern is about getting new rotors is the material of the rotor and how it was casted. Now after doing some research (I invite you to do the same), most of the manufactures usually just fabricate (drill or slot) from aftermarket stock rotors to make it have the performance look, and a majority of the consumers will buy this. If you dig deeper into the rotor you will find that while they say it is an "upgrade", it may be worse than your standard OE rotor in a performance expectation

I am not saying that the rotors you are speaking about are affected by my statement or anything, in fact I don't know much about that company, but before you go out and buy rotors (safety item), find out what your getting first.
