Default Slotted/drilled rotors with stock brakes - is it possible?

Is it possible to install aftermarket slotted/drilled rotors but use the stock brakes and with the stock 18" wheels... ?

With cross drilled / slotted rotors, they should cool the brake rotors better than stock rotors.. so if you track, it will help..I don't track, so I got them for the looks!

When you do this, install the SS brake lines and put some better brake fluid in as well. That will make a nice improvement on pedal travel, response and reliability.
