Re: [DML] Custom Drilled Rotors

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

You don't mention how noisy it is. Also on many applications that are
cross-drilled the holes are angled which causes the rotors to become
"handed" so you can no longer use the left rotor on the right and
vice-versa. On the better cross-drilled jobs I do see the holes
countersunk so a less sharp edge is presented to the pads with a
minimal reduction in surface area but it does increase the noise
level. Anything you can do to keep the rotors cooler will increase the
life of the pads. Because the rotors on a Delorean are not ventilated
you probably gain a lot as compared to a ventilated rotor. The only
drawback I can see (besides the cost) is the higher noise level.
