How did you get rotors replacement under warranty ?
If the dimensions are the same then you are good to go, might have slightly more pad wear with slotted but better for track.

I found out on tire rack that the P4S is 100$ per tire cheaper on 295 vs 305. it's my street set so I don't care about the marginal loss of grip.
