Brembo or other rotors
I want cross drilled rotors. I know that slotted rotors would be better, but my question is, are after market cross drilled rotors going to be at least as good as the stock brembo rotors I have? If so, do you have any recommendations?

The Baer's will save you about 5 lbs. per rotor.

Either way, so long as you have adequate thickness and no warping, the issue is probably only cosmetic. The surface rust will be gone as soon as you step on the brake pedal to stop the car.

I would stay away from drilled. If you like the look go with dimpled.
On my Lightning this is what every rotor in the set of high end rotors looked like after 10k miles. Yes there were a lot of 130 mph + 1/4 mile stops. But they shouldn't have cracked. This is the second set to do this. 2 Different company's
