You're right. I looked back after you mentioned it, and there was one particularly negative thread with a nasty looking cross-drilled rotor with heat cracking propogating from the drilled holes. The more I think about it, from an a stress analysis standpoint, the smaller the holes are, the greater stress becomes and the more likely, under repetitive extreme braking, th stress cracking can commence.
Until I get more experience with the set I've already put on my '88 Turbo Conv., I'll refrain from endorsing their use. However, if anyone's got it right, its the engineers at Brembo. Had I seen this thread before I bought my set of Zimmermans, I probably, at the very least, would have bought the Brembo's.
No one like's to think they may have made a bad investment, but I haven't. I'll keep my fingers crossed, and provide periodic updates.
Thanks, for pointing these concerns out to me.
