Front Cross Drilled Performance Rotors
SP Performance - Cross Drilled Performance Rotors have a design that offers the best results possible in cooling and venting brake dust and moisture. Unlike our competition there is no sharp edge on our chamfer. This is accomplished by the use of an outer radius curve rather than a countersink. With the radius curve, or "Sinusoid Curve", it virtually eliminates an edge on the surface of the hole. This smooth surface also makes the rotor more pad friendly by reducing the wear of the pad caused by the friction scraping against a sharp edge
Standard - Gray ZRC Finish: All Cross Drilled Performance Rotors are provided with our gray ZRC coating. It provides long-lasting protection against corrosion in the most hostile salt-water environments. After being applied, ZRC provides the highest level of galvanic protection. The film of ZRC is conductive. After the coating heats up during use, it bonds permanently to the metal surface. It will not allow the metal to corrode, even when the surface is scratched.
Optional - Bright Silver Nickel Plating: Electro-plating is performed on our Cross Drilled Performance Rotors to provide a brighter finish which is more appealing to the look of the rotor. When plating a rotor, a metallurgical bond is formed between the plating and steel, forming an iron rich alloy with tenacious bond where it will form its own protective oxide layer. Electro- plating is very effective in combating the corrosion of the rotor.

The constant heating and cooling of the brake rotor can cause heat checking. The sharp edges on the hole or countersink creates a stress point, increasing the possibility of a crack formation.
Straight Drilled Hole A high stress and heat build up area forms at the intersection of the rotor and drilled edge.
Countersunk Drilled Hole Countersinking increases the external surface area of the hole, thus reducing heat, but still contains edges prone to stress and heat build up.
Radius Drilled Hole The Radius Chamfer increases the hole cooling area thus reducing heat, but still contains sharp edges.
Our Sinusoidal Curved Chamfered Hole Absolutely no sharp edges. The smooth design promotes cooling and minimizes stress, reducing the possibility of heat checking while increasing both rotor and pad life.
Great looks, longer life and better braking performance don’t have to cost a fortune. Just add SP Performance Cross Drilled Performance Rotors to your vehicle and notice the difference right away: your brakes have more power, they look great behind those wheels, and you feel good knowing you saved on such a high quality product.
The secret behind the power of SP Performance Cross Drilled Performance Rotors is their advanced drilled design. They vent heat, moisture and dirt far better than stock discs. What’s more, they’re zinc coated to resist corrosion. And, thanks to SP Performance - Cross Drilled Performance Rotors exclusive Sinusoid Curve chamfering style, they’re easier on your brake pads than any other cross-drilled rotors on the market.
Installation is a simple "Do It Yourself" project. In fact, SP Performance Cross Drilled Performance Rotors fit exactly in place of the stock discs without modification or hassle. Easy to mount and easy on your wallet — order a set for your ride today.
Note: Use of Ceramic Brake Pads: because of their slicker properties, ceramic brake pads should not be used with SP's plated rotors. Please pair your SP plated rotors with a composite pad.
