Why did our cars not come standard with cross drilled rotors?

NVH mostly, and reliability as cross-drilled are way more prone to cracking.

b/c they offer no benefit on steels. they just clog up with pad deposits and then you have less braking surface area. if you watch a lot of the reviews on the media drop thread you'll also get the same info soundman414 just said in that flat rotors offer better NVH, which is generally what you want from a supposedly premium product brand.

Got it. Just thought the looks would be better as well.

Just put a Dewalt to it and drill your own holes. What could go wrong? Should dramatically increase resale value. Your BW will prob sell for asking next day.

Nah it’s okay I actually prefer the looks of solid rotors.

please post the weight before and after drilling. looking to do power mods like this. will harbor freight black oxide drill bits work or will I need harbor freight titanium bits? will the wheels need to be removed or can I just drill through the spokes?

You can stop off at the house as well. No need to take the wheels off. I have really good titanium bits. We can go right through those wheels of yours….. maybe in a V pattern
