I believe the ceramics still dust, but the dust isn't as visible. Hawk also has some ceramics, but they don't claim they're any better than stock.

As for drilled, nobody casts holes in their rotors. A "quality" drilled rotor has radiused holes that are staggered to reduce hotspots and don't go through the cooling vanes.

A bumper sticker that says "I'm a douchebag" is much cheaper than drilled rotors, and gives your car the same type of look.


Thanks CC, I have slotted cad plated rotors with Hawks HPS pads on the Vette and I love them, I have D+S cad plated rotors with Wagner pads on my Camaro. I'll have to get a bumper sticker for the Camaro! Tough crowd here! Anyhow I like the "BoyRacer" look! Both work well. To the OP, If you like the look, who cares! Any benefit or drawback is probably measured in minute degrees anyways.
