petervr6 0 Posted February 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 the vented disc will stay a lot cooler because of the vent between the 2 discs` were as a solid disc will get a lot hotter because both brake pads the inside and outside pad are both pressing on the same disc cause more heat on the disc.hope that makes sense..
