um... no. You are thinking of Porsche and Ferrari. Those are rotors are NOT drilled at all, but the holes are cast into the rotor.
I did want to point something out here that I noticed. They showed the dual master cylinder set up, While perfect for these brakes and they will give great feel... they do not have a provision for the vacuume assist. If you get them you will be looking at a ROCK HARD pedal at all times that you will need to put some pressure on to stop the car.
Do not get me wrong, I prefer my brakes that way, but I wanted everyone else to know this too. If you have never driven a car with fully manual brakes, you are in for a surprise.

Drilled before casting? Cut out the retarded comments.
Pro, I'm in for a set for SURE.
Very very nice, and since they are pre cut at US Brakes, shouldn't be any problems.
