Cross Drilled or Slotted??

Besides the obivious looks, which is better to get being that this car is street driven. How about the coating they offer for rotors. Is it worth it to have that done? Does it do anything for performance?

To me the cross drilled rotor looks alot better,but the slotted is by far stronger.With cross drilled rotors they have a tendence to crack between the holes when exposed to high tempratures over and over.I have used cross drilled on my car and cracked two rotors before I swapped ti slotted and I have not had anymore problems.

I have cross-drilled rotors on mine, and although I haven't had any problems and think they're ****, next time it comes to replacing rotors, I think I'm gonna give the slotted ones a try. I've also heard that the slotted are stronger, and I think they look better anyway.
