Whether slowing from 40 or 100, they do the job much better than the stock rotors. So why does everybody seem to dislike them so much? I sure don't. Peace
Let me ask you this did you replace the pads? When you did the rotors?

If your old rotors were junked or worn, then there is your answer.
Brake feel has nothing to do with effectiveness.
It may feel better but your stopping distance may not have changed.

Nobody hates slotted or cross-drilled rotors, they just don't do anything on the street.
