id recommend dimpled

 

Reason being?

215 a piece for dimpled/slotted I like the 117 for a pair for the flats lol

 

wont weaken rotors like slots and drilled holes but yet increases stopping power. but this is from research, not first hand experience

 

the reason i was looking into flat surfaced is because i no longer have the dust shield on the rotors, removed them due to the spindles. Flat surfaced will have a lot less chance of having something get stuck in there....I will do some more research before I pull the trigger.

 

Drilled/slotted is great on a track car... but that additional stopping power comes at certain costs, and sometimes doesn't do all that much.

It'll eat the pads faster for one.
There's been several cases of design flaws on certain slotted rotors (I know of at least one case on 3000GT's off hand where they were cut to the edge causing a weak point... and would literally explode in autocross/track use). Granted, this is less not a very common issue but it can/does happen.

Like Oli said, on an off-road truck I'd imagine it'd get stuff stuck in there especially if you go mudding or something... and I could imagine it might actually reduce your stopping power making it slick as it wont' be able to self clean like a flat surface will.

I dunno I think on an off-road truck they don't really have a place, but that's just talking out of my ass with no actual personal experience or data to back it up lol.

 

I might do oem rotors and hawk pads

 

Why were you braking on the way back from payson

 

went out to old abandoned airport last night at riggs and 99th ave with my buddy, bfa, and roberta, awesome time wheeling and shootin, truck did AWESOME, so comfortable doing 40 on the road i did 15 uncomfortably in the ranger.

 

meet me at the bar in 20 minutes, and suit up!

 

^^ whaaa? Lol

 

made it from avondale to flag in under 2 hours, it was a closed course though so no worries.

 

Who's doing something today I'm bored!

 

I'm gonna be finishing up my brother's deck plate mod.

 

I'm meeting a guy who's buying my bumper and stereo.. lol

 

Sounds hot

 

HAHA.. oh it was.. met him off Roosevelt and 7th pretty sketchy. Lol. I put the ad up on CL yesterday evening, and sold It all less than 24 hours later. All to the same guy. Said his bumper got hit and bent It all up, and it alsp cut out his stereo for some reason.. what are the odds I happen to post those two exact things Lol

 

He cut his stereo out? He probably hasn't heard of dash kits

 

Haha.. no no.. it messed up his stereo. Ya big dummy. Lol jk

 

True story when my girlfriends car was rear ended the Stereo came out and was dangling by the wires
