Cross drilled rotors
Where can I get cross drilled rotor for my E92?
I'm only interested in the rotors, not a BBK |

DBA makes a slotted rotor....in case you're interested. They are the DBA 4000 and 5000. There is a thread on here that explains what they're all about. Tire RAck also sells them.
Sorry, but I'm not sure about drilled.

Cross-Drilled are actually drilled all the way through.
Dimpled are just indents, and the hole does not go all they way thru.

Just noticed the slots go to the edge too. Any info that discusses how this affects the long term strength of the rotor?

Just installed the Rotora F&R caliper kit and DBA slotted rotor kit. I am very happy with this upgrade and the DBA rotors are actually a little lighter than stock so a welcome surprise. I will post some pics

Slotted is the way to go. Just look at the braking systems on most race cars nowadays. Stoptech has a lot of good info on their site. Here's their take on drilled vs slotted rotors:
