Todays carbon metallic pads contain NO organic material, therefore producing NO gas. Cross drilled rotors are a byproduct of '30's technology when brake pads and shoes were made out of leather. Cross drilled rotors crack. Slotted rotors wear pads. Proper bedding and pad selection will eliminate glazing.

then again, i may be wrong.
kit kathy, it really has nothing to do with weight reduction...that is only like a few ounces of metal.
more weight reduction can be achieved if the driver takes a dump before driving..

Timmy, I hope ur rotor upgrade is part of a process where u're upgrading piston size, pad type, flex lines, brake fluid and ur brake master cylinder...else, u're completely wasting ur money (and quite possibly risking ur life) fixing these rotors onto a bone stock system
