What is a good cross drilled rotor

I have an 05 Auto TL and was thinking about getting crossdrilled rotors and was woundering what are some good ones and where to buy them. I found one place on the internet and gave them a call and they sell somthing called brembo blanks is what it sounded like. I don't want to spend a fortune, but don't want bad quality.

for cross-drilled rotors and you will find that unless they were designed originally for it, you are loosing too much material. The rotors will heat up faster (less mass to heat) and will cool faster but most of them have a tendency to crack around the holes that were drilled.

Save your money and buy good quality undrilled rotors.

you can get them from www.zeckhausen.com. i think brembo makes it.
Dave does not have it updated on his site, but you can call him and order it directly. he is in NJ as well, so you can even pick it up. very, very nice guy. he is well know in the BMW world as the brakes expert.

good luck!!
