850 brakes cross drilled rotors/dics

Thanks for your time. What are your opinions zimmerman cross drilled rotors? I've got a 94 850 185,000 mi in great mechanical condition. Rear rotors are pitted and rusted, with little pad life left. Thinking about just doing the whole car, front and rear, with cross drilled rotors, stainless steal lines, and the whole nine. Have people had good or bad experiences with the cross drilled rotors? Also, and thoughts on pads? Thanks.

Cross drilled rotors tend to crack at the holes. Latest IPD newsletter says don't use them. I would suggest the redo, using OEM parts for rotors and pads. Best around and more than adequate unless you're racing the car.
