I'm really late when it comes to commenting to this, but drilled rotors are necessarily unnecessary. There is a reason why super cars and hypercars rock them. The cracks developing in the rotors that Tanner mentioned are normal and have no effect on breaking long term as the cracks are just surface level. Also rotors come in different compositions as well. The rotors Tanner put on his car are steel rotors. Once you start tapping into carbon, carbon ceramic, or titanium rotors, you will start seeing an increase in performance. But most people will need either steel or carbon ceramic brakes. Carbon or titanium brakes will only be necessary if you're planning on using your car for track days as those two compositions generally require greater heat to actually start working better.

Another great video. Thank you for the links. It definitely makes things a lot easier for everyone.

It will help with removing the old rotor and putting on the new one.

Great video!!! 👍👍👍👍 When talking about left and right on a car, it is based on sitting in the driver's seat. So left is drivers side, right is passenger side. Heli-coils SUCK!!!! I would rather spend the money to replace the part than do heli-coils. Also when taking the rotors off, use 2 bolts, one for each hole. Tighten one a bit, then the other one a bit. And keep doing that and it should work its self loose. Only using one bolt, you run the risk of bending a wheel stud or warping the hub surface. Don't put lock tite on the caliper bolts. It is completely un necessary. Anti-sieze only.
