ES is 4x100 oz is 4x114. Be sure to pick up a good set up pads as that's what has the most effect on breaking. The drilled/Slotted pads just help your brakes cool quicker so there isn't brake fade.

I hope R1 can help you out. I bought a set of their cross-drilled/slotted rotors & axxis pads a while back (for an OZ though). I highly recommend both! Good luck.

All of the rotors you see that are drilled AND slotted are done so by a third party, and NOT endorsed or guaranteed by Brembo. There is a high chance for failure if the disc is not drilled or slotted properly. Also, most of these discs are not properly balanced and the drilling or slotting paterns are not properly engineered.
There is a lot more engineering than most people think that goes into correctly drilling or slotting an aftermarket brake disc. Most of the problems you hear with disc cracking or disc failure is due to this type of incorrect "remanufacturing" of a Brembo disc.
If you are unsure of where to purchace an Authentic Brembo Sport Disc...you can call 714-438-1118. Anyone the can direct you to an authorized Brembo dealer in your area.
There are also many Authorized dealers that are sponsors of this site.
Thanks,

Dumb thought - if you want to improve your brakes, why waste money on rotors? I guarantee it won't improve them at all. The only thing drilled/slotted rotors will do is lower temp. levels on a long day of racing.
Get pads if you want to upgrade the brakes.
