The rotors have come in I usually go with EBC but I had to cut their slotted rotors twice cuz of pulsation, stoptech has been good so far.

Pros: good so far
Cons: pulsation issues

I have StopTech drilled/slotted. Ive ran mine for about a year now, purchased through Rock Auto. Very happy so far with the quality and performance. Take a while to warm up but then they hook just fine & work great with my Hawk Ceramic pads for minimal brake dust. They have held up just as expected, no signs of rust ect. I do not daily the R, so these do not get daily abuse.

Pros: happy with quality, good performance
Cons: take a while to warm
Vehicle: Volkswagen

We run a Stoptech BBK on the BMW 335 car that I race in endurance races (4, 9 or 12 hour) and we run either slotted or plain rotors, but never run cross-drilled. Our rotors last longer and we don't have the cracking issues associated with cross-drilled.

Pros: rotors last longer
Cons: cracking issues
Vehicle: BMW

I have drilled and slotted rotors on my MK7. I have never had any warping or cracking issues with them, or one any other car that I've ever had with them. Performance wise I've never noticed a difference between stock or drilled/slotted rotors except for in wet conditions. When it's wet out break feel is MUCH better with drilled/slotted rotors.

Pros: better break feel in wet
Cons: no difference performance wise

+1 for stoptech st-40s, they're slotted 328mm rotors and 4 pot calipers. Car brakes really nice. Kept the stock rears, although had to replace calipers at about 120k as they were starting to seize. If the car sits for a few days, the rust builds up (I assume in the slots) and makes noise . Goes away after about 30-40 miles. Not sure if drilled would be better. I definitely don't regret it, but modulation from the 4-pot isn't improved the way I thought it'd be. For the same price or just a tad more I could've gone with R32/GolfR/etc. front and rear, I'd probably do that if I were to do it again.

Pros: Car brakes really nice
Cons: rust builds up, makes noise
Mileage: 120000 km
