Do vented rotors offer more warp resistance over solid rotors?
In my mind they would due to the additional support structure internal to the rotor (i.e. the vents). Specifically, I am looking at 914-6 rear rotors (solid) vs 911SC rear rotors (vented). Also, has anyone recently considered using the wider 911SC rear wheel bearings (5mm wider)? I have been thinking of a thick plate (3/8") with the retainer bolt pattern and a 5mm deep recess to accept the 5mm wider rear wheel bearing. This would allow use of 911SC rear hubs without spacers.
