Slotted are not recommended for off-road, too many places for dirt and crap to reside, why would you need slotted, it ain't a race car you know. If it were a Porsche like I used to drive i would say go with the slotted, how would slotted be a benefit on a slow dancing pig in mud such as a Discovery in it's natural environment, really now.
Might as well lower it and put 22's on it and a big kicker bass system with neon underneath you know bro.

My Rovers North Rotors still look great and the pads are about 80 percent good and it;s been over two years. Not bad for 100 bucks total.

Braking a heavy car, heavy amount of braking or heavy as in extreme braking (like hard cornering)? I don't really do the latter two by we all know our trucks are heavy, and they require braking.... But at 4500 miles/year I wouldn't consider myself a "heavy breaker"

Sounds expensive. Im staring too many different projects in the face right now to be thinking about ceramic pads and cross drilled rotors. I'd LOVE them but def can't justify it right now. Mike, don't the drilled, slotted rotors hold mud and crap in?
