You hear alot of things

yer well i got new rotors 4 my car bout a month ago was lookin at gettin them also but the brake dude said they r fairly noisey, that was their only back draw so i decided just 2 get the plain faced rotor im pretty sure i asked this question if it were true in a thread ages ago.

When you guys say noisy what do you mean like grinding noise or squel or what ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

I have drilled and slotted on the front and slotted only on the rear. They are bloody noisy under hard braking, its like a rumbling sound but there is no brake fade at all, even from 200kph plus.

Higher quality slotteds are no where near as noisy as the cheap option DBA's. I use PBR slotted rotors(343mm) and they are barely noticeable. The DBA's on my brothers car sound terrible. The Brembo's on the oldies GT-P are just as quiet.

Again, only speaking from what ive used/heard.
