well I drive about 30 miles each way up and down a foul ass mountain road every day, and I love my crossdrilled slotted rotors. Warped my stock rotors at 4000miles, then went to J-Power Slotted Rotors, had them toasted by 8000miles(slotted heats the pads up very fast and doesn't vent the gases the same as dimpled or crossdrilled), then I went to Brembo Blanks that had been dimpled, slotted, and zinc plated, I'm now passing 17000 miles and no troubles, almost no brake fade at all, great bite(thanks to AEM pads) and although they can be a bit on the noisy side(squeeky when cold, and you'll hear a popping noise from the hot gases when they are hot), and great pedal feel(partially due to neuspeed brake lines, and the pads). If I hose them again I'll be putting a big brake kit on, but generally if you don't really abuse the piss out of your brakes I'd stick with OEM, or if you are in need of brakes, just get brembo blanks and some good pads.
