actually i do. running 11psi and not being able to stop in time might cause a problem or two.

they look nice do u know if they are coated? if not you might want to tape off the rotors and spray the center part with some high temp paint so it doesnt rust up. and .L. if you are getting them to shorten you stoping distance you are gonna be very disappointed... they might shortin it by a few feet... but there main purpose is to hold up better to high heat/stress situtations(like the track) where they stay cooler then none slotted rotors. In that respect they will help shorten your stopping distance.

Wut's up with that anyways? OZ got Powerslot and Brembos...why not just make it for ES too. it's ok, I ordered a pair from r1concepts...but the Brembos look hot!
