ROTORA's. I have them on my CL-S and I love them. The only thing I would change is the pads b/c I have the Axxis Ultimates and they squeal sometimes and give off a decent amount of brake dust.

PM me too if you want a price on the ROTORA's and ROTORA's new ceramic pads.

I've never tried Power Slot rotors, but I do have Rotora. They are great products.

I've got Rotoras with EBC greens and this setup seems to work fine for me (I've never tried PowerSlots).

I have Rotora drilled, slotted and Hawk HP Plus pads all around, Comptech braided lines.

Have Powerslot and Hawk HP Plus on wife's minivan.

I seemed to like my set up better, however both setups create lot of dust and noise, I just have to wash the wheels more often.

Power Slot

Hi,

Power Slots are awesome. At the company I work at, no complaints whatsoever.
Happy holidays.

Kindest Regards,

To Powerslot or to Rotora? That is the question.

I feel that the Rotora rotors work very well with a high performance pad. I helped install Powerslots on my friend's car with performance pads and he too sees increased braking performance. We both notice increased noise over lesser performing pads until you warm up the rotor/pads.

What I have to say concerning one rotor versus the other, is that the Rotora rotors do not have as thorough a protective coating over the entire surface of the rotors. This allows some rust to form around the rotor surface where the pad does not contact.

Powerslot rotors have a silver coating versus the Rotors black coating. The Powerslot coating is over the surface of the rotor including where the pads contact the rotors. This way when the rotors are swept by the pads they then remove the protective coating only where the pads will contact. This allows a more effective rust preventative coating over the entire rotor.

Either way you go you will have very good stopping performance, but from an aesthetic standpoint the Powerslots will have less rust accumulation over time.

Hope this helps some.
