A waste of time & money.
-The slots will fill with rust and pad material
-The holes will cause cracking and fill with pad material/rust
-Both will reduce the mass of the rotor, which is bad(for thermal reasons.)
-Both will reduce the surface area of contact between pad and rotor,
which is bad(for obvious reasons.)
-Your wallet will be needlessly lightened(also bad, for obvious reasons.)
The only "plus" is that they look cool(until they fill up w/rust or
pad material.) The negatives outweigh the positives significantly.
