Cross drilled rotors are great for the track or race applications. They do crack and warp more easily than slotted or factory rotors and need more frequent inspection. I would buy gas slotted rotors. Those shown in the eBay link are not even named. Who's are they? If they are not ATE, Brembo, Frozen Rotors, or Zimmermans I would not buy them.

get rotors that have the holes cast into them. some on ebay are just regular rotors and whoever is listing them drills them(or has a shop do it for them).thats when bad things happen. but still...i went through THREE sets of front cross drilled rotors because or warpage-might have been because of the 19" wheels, but i doubt it.they were Powerstop (or Autospecialty) rotors. i had zimmermans on my car for a week before i sold it, so i couldn't tell you much about them other than they have the holes cast into the rotor from the factory.

you can find some brembo rotors, slotted and/or xdrilled, for about the same price of OE style rotors. i got mine on ebay, i got some "Balo" rotors.
