Brakenetic GT Series rotors

Personally, I would define "sprinkle slotted" as a sprinkling of slots on the face of the rotor. It doesn't seem to me that you can assume a particular layout of the slots from the word sprinkle. And therefore, in my opinion, all of the rotors I referred to in fact have a sprinkle slotted option even if their patterns are different and the manufacturers use different names for them. Others may feel differently.

I have the 2-piece Z1's front and rear. Love 'em! They are not like some past slotted rotors I had on other cars that made a ton of noise and vibration. Had "power slots" on my SC300 sold by Les Shwab(never ever go there!), and some EBC slotted on my WRX. The wrx made a ton of noise if you enjoyed having the windows down, the Lex it was major pedal vibration.

I'm thinking either the sprinkle pattern or just smaller staggered slots = benefits without the noise? Whatever the case is, they do the job seamlessly.

How do they compare to new OEM rotors besides looks and weight?
