Slotted? Drilled?

which one is better for a 2000 tiburon....

Where is best place to buy???

Of course sloted and drilled... If they're avaliable.
The drills willl evacuate the hot and dust from the pads.
The sloted will do the same and will clean the pads.
They together is the best combination to have the best braking power.
The only possible negative effect is that the slots maybe, can waste faster the pads, but nobody has complained about it ever, I think...
You'll pick a good sed of brake pads acording to your new discs!:smoking:

Actually, from what I've read from the "experts", slotted and drilled isn't any better than just slotted or just drilled.

It really depends on what you want the brakes for. Do you want better looks? Get drilled. Do you want the brake pads to have a better bite when you hit the brakes? Get slotted.

BTW, we have the KVR rotors in the HP Store (http://shop.hyundaiperformance.com).

I went with the slotted and I'm very happy with them.

Here's a few pics of them:

i got he KVR drilled, very happy with them also, however now when i brake there is a faint sound coming from them. Simillar to putting a baseball card in the spokes of ur bike wheels when u were a kid but MUCH softer. Ive only had them on for 4 days now so hopefully it will go away as the rotors wear.......?
