Slotted and Drilled for JCW kit?

Does anyone make a slotted and drilled rotor that will work with the JCW bbk? I would like to go with these on the front and rear. If I can't do this I am thinking of selling the kit and running the wilwoods. I am running into spacing issues though as I need to run a winter tire and the S-Lites seem to have spacing issues. I am running 18" Ultraleggerras the rest of the year. Any ideas?

If it only for looks on the street then drilled is ok but if you intend on tracking the car drilled rotors will crack.

I know it is probably a waste in many people's eyes, but I am doing it for looks. No track days planned for this car. Any ideas?

minspeed sells a cross-drilled rotor for your application....http://www.myminiparts.com/proddetai...prod=ZBR&cat=8

the s-lites are the most brake unfriendly wheel ever made. you will have a difficult time finding a bbk that will fit.....i'm not an expert (but i did stay at a holiday inn express), but check around.

Forgive me if I am wrong, but aren't those just replacements for stock? I am looking to get drilled and slotted rotors that will fit the JCW BBK.

The rotors that are available for the '07 JCW brake kit will fit previous years and are drilled and slotted but they have the 14mm bolt holes.
