Now you are just confusing things. What do those numbers refer to and whats the comparison between them.

    The numbers after the first 3 letters dictate the model.
    The first 3 letters are the manufacturer.

    So, DBA425 and RDA425 are the same.
    Just the manufacturers are the difference.

    DBA425S and RDA425S are slotted

    I have emailed Brakes Direct and asked them if they will do a group buy. Waiting for a reply

      Good timing, too!

      Meanwhile, what's the difference between the regular ones and the "dark series" :?:

      Ah, ok cheers.

      How much is the difference in brake pad wear between standard, slotted and slotted + dimpled?

      Check their site for detailed info

      Basically slotted helps disperse gases that build up between rotor and pad and effectively dimples should be better. But for the masses they really look good

      Add me to the list. I will buy RDA front slotted/dimpled rotors.

      Hopefully group buy will prevail
