I'm looking for cross drilled and/or slotted rotors. I haven't found any of the good companies that make them for an 03 LS with the sports suspension. I was wondering if anyone had some info on that. thanks
Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotors!

Rotors
Most of my TC's have cross drilled and slotted rotors on them. When a new car needs rotors, that is what we replace them with. Some of the cars have these rotors with over 200,000 on them with no signs of needing replacement or turning. They just don't warp or wear out! The only thing is, they make a peculiar wooshing sound when the brakes are applied for a while when they're new.
We get our rotors, and the "dustless" pads from Randy at Brake Warehouse, 1622 E. North Street, Suite 7, Greenville, S. C., 29607, 800-814-0702.
Randy will drill and slot the correct rotors for your car and ship them, usually within a day or two.
We've saved a ton of money by using these rotors in place of stock replacement rotors, even though they're about twice the price of the rotors you can get at any parts store. As I noted, they last just about forever, and can really bring these big, heavy cars down in a hurry when needed.
Hope this helps you.

I heard that it's not good to have them drilled and slotted. It's best to get them made from the facotry with the holes and slots already done. Someone told me that it weakens the rotors when you get rotors that are drilled and sloted after they are made by the factory
