Has annyone had their brake drums drilled? I've read that it improves performance by letting the gasses and brake dust escape. Would this be a good substitute for discs or would it be better to just buy disc's?

I wouldn't even bother, put the mony towards disc brakes. People are still up in the air if drilled rotors offer any improvement over stock.

the fact that discs brakes squeeze the rotor at a much more efficent rate rather than drums. I dont think holes would really help drums out much. it would probably do what some discs do, crack and ruin it.
