I've got a 1998 GT, with the 5 spoke wheel design, and have braking performance issues in really wet weather. In a real down pour (where there is nearly standing water on the highway), when I apply my cold, wet brakes, I have awful braking performance. I have maybe 20% of normal breaking power for a few seconds, until the rotors dry off from friction/heat. This is kinda scary when you need to stop from 70 mph on the highway. Note that I have no braking problems in dry weather or light rain.

Does anyone else have this issue? Have you found a fix for it?

I was thinking slotted rotors might help shed the water faster, so the rotors would dry faster and my breaking would be available sooner. I have been looking at Powerslot rotors on tirerack. Does anyone have any experience with slotted rotors and/or have any suggestions? I don't really care about any other performance gains I might get with slotted rotors, I just want better braking in wet weather.

Thanks for your help.
