You only need grooves or holes in discs if the pads produce gas when hot, giving a hovercraft effect.
Modern road pads don't gas, so no advantage.

hi there,
i always thought that drilled and grooved discs helps keep the disc cooler under heavy breaking regardless of the pads etc. i did hear though, that cheap drilled discs arnt recommended, because theres a chance that they can crack around the holes.

nope.. vented bit does that
in theory grooves clean the pad, drilled discs stop gas build up. all drilled discs will crack.. seen it on porsche ap setups
in practise, bmw discs are man enough
