ok guy...look slotted rotors are BETTER than plane OEM rotors and here is why, first the metal that they are made out of is far better that OEM and because of that they dont tend to warp as easy or wear out, yes they are heavier than OEM, but remember OEM was made to reduce wight in order to gain higher miles per gallon and easier recycling.

Second, the slotted part of the rotor removes gunk build up on the brake pads by shaving it off and eliminating air btw the pad and rotor for better braking grip.

And third, it does wear your brake pads a bit faster, but this is subjective because every one has different braking habits.

If for example you are in traffic breaking all the time, breaks heat up, gunk keeps building up on that pad and then a burst of gas to catch up and at this moment some ******* cuts right in to your lane, you hit the brake.....aaand you barely are braking due to gunk build up and air btw the pad+rotor, not to mention boiling brake fluid. Guess what ur hitting that ***.
