I've had both drilled / slotted and drilled only, both make significantly more noise than OEM but the drilled / slotted made the most. Sounded almost like when you were a kid and you put a playing card through the spokes of the wheel of your bike when the brakes were applied.

Dave you hit the nail on the head. That's exactly how mine sound when braking; I have drilled and slotted with oem pads.

Theoretically that would make sense. Since drilled and/or slotted has space that are missing. The pads are hitting the rotors, then not, then again, if that makes sense.

I haven't really been that annoyed to notice any changes between stock and cross drilled.
