what is the proper direction of drilled and slotted rotors
I've had different people tell me different ways. What's the right way?

Re: what is the proper direction of drilled and slotted rotors
I've seen them both ways.
I'd like to know this also.

Re: what is the proper direction of drilled and slotted rotors
My rear rotors from wilwood have an arrow on them pointing so the slots are going against the turn of the wheel. But I called Performance Online and they were telling me the slots should go with the turn of the wheel bc it will eat the breaks up faster.

Baer Brakes says to run the slots,... just opposite, of that. Who knows. Does it really matter?

Re: what is the proper direction of drilled and slotted rotors
Yea I have found documentation on them about the internal vanes and I can understand that. It's actuallly a functioning design of the breaks. Mine are straight.
