[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 440599, member: 18789"] There are actually quite a few that are not vented, namely rear disc applications. For example, the discs used in the 03-06 TJ were just a single piece of metal, not two halves vented in the center. But, that's an extremely light duty application, hence the non vented design. Same for my friend's Nissan Altima we replaced the rears on. But yeah, most are vented, especially up front where they do the work. I'd say slotted is fine, I just don't see the benefit. Cross-Drilled I see as a negative, because they are prone to cracking. At the end of the day both seem like they offer little benefit in exchange for the additional money spent. I do think money is better spent on those brakes than ducks though ;) [/QUOTE]
