Compared to a standard disc, from the initial braking phase, Brembo Xtra drilled discs ensure greater grip and more responsive and efficient performance of the braking system. Because of the holes, the friction coefficient between disc and pad is greater.

Are drilled brake discs better?

More Grip with Drilled Discs

Unlike standard brake discs drilled discs offer more grip, allowing you to brake harder and faster. This is due to the holes which have been drilled through the discs. The addition of the holes in the disc increases the friction coefficient between the brake pads and the brake disc.

Are drilled brakes worth it?

If you live in an area that experiences a lot of rain, drilled rotors are a very good choice. They perform well in rainy climates by offering a good “wet bite,” hold up well over the life of the rotors, and deliver more friction and more bite than their slotted counterparts.
