Are your discs vented?

If not, I'd steer clear of drilled discs. Heat buildup can cause thermal cracking at stress points, that's the nasty side effect of the holes...

If they're vented discs, good stuff but I'd recommend grooved over drilled.

Holes are there for lightening mostly. Grooves help keep the pads deglazed.

You won't notice the reduced weight, but you will notice if your pads glaze up!
