cutting cross drilled and slotted rotors
well i herad you can and i also heard you cant. i got a set of raybestos brute stop rotors with ceramic pads. i got a real nast wobble when breaking so im sure the rotors need to be turned. i rather keep the cross drilled ones but am i better off with just stock ones?

Re: cutting cross drilled and slotted rotors
I have never had an issue with turning down slotted/drilled rotors. As long as they are the correct thickness I run them anyway.

Re: cutting cross drilled and slotted rotors
i've heard the same, i think it depends on the bit they're using on the machine to do it. some may say no,due to they might already be cut thin out of the factory,so they maybe only one time use. best thing you can do is take it to your local parts store, ask them if they can, and if not,have them measure for you so you know where you're at,and then take it somewhere that can cut such a rotor. best advice i can give ya.
good luck,
