ok, i'm going to repeat myself. why?

you say you're not having a fade problem. the only reason to cross drill
is for fade prevention. so what conceivable reason is there to buy them?

your brakes are fine the way they are. if you start having fluid boil problems,
cross drilling is irrelevant, you need to focus on cooling and/or insulation.

if you want better stopping, you need to look at friction materials (e.g.,
different pads, say the Porterfield R4-S for mixed street/track use.)
