I don't agree with that. The only thing cross drilled rottors due is keep the rotors cooler. The surface area is what counts for braking distance. And if they are bigger than the stock O.E.M. base model then it should be better. Best of all would be a set of cross Drilled & Slotted(for venting brake dust/gasses to escape) rottors for better cooling and venting. You should upgrade the pads too while your at it.
