    Slotted rotors will dissipate heat better, cross drilled and slotted will do it better but are more prone to cracking under super heavy braking.

    RDA rotors have a good rep, might want to look into them. One of the forum sponsors sells them, take a gander

    mate get yourself some DBA slotters fitted, I've had the fronts done, and I have had no problems thus far, plus they pull up really nicely

    IMHO i have used the standard ones for the last 18months, not one issue with warping or squeking or anything.

    Perhaps alter your 'breaking technique'.
