I agree they won't hurt anything (unless you get cheapie drilled ones that crack). My response was directly related to the question of "do i need drilled/slotted?", in which the answer is absolutely not. I've got nothing against some of the badass brakes out there (EBC/Stillen/etc)... if someone wants to run the best brakes money can buy, do it. It's part of the fun of "modding" our rigs. But for someone looking for quality brakes that wont break the bank (nice pun?), the cost/performance ratio of drilled/slotted isn't worth it.
