I went with centric blank rotors and stoptech street pads wasn't hard at all.
I am a big fan of Centric 120-series brake rotors and either Akebono ProAct or EBC RedStuff pads.
I use Centric Cryo-Treated 125s on my Brembo swapped VA WRX. They are a great rotor and have held up really well over the 20k miles that I have been running them. They still look almost brand new, which is crazy considering what they have been through.
As others said, rockauto for parts. CENTRIC rotors are considered the best. Pad choice will only affect brake dust levels for street driving.
I’ve had good luck with centric brand off rock auto.
I put a predator front engine mount and a Kinetic rear. The mechanics noticed that I had a warped brake disc, they changed the discs for Galfer and the brake pads. I had no more problems after that….
I used Centric Premium rotors on my last Jeep XJ which is notorious for marginal brakes and they were good. I did bed them in per instructions, they got smoky, stinky hot.
centric blank rotors is the way. they are the supplier for powerstop and many OEMs. im sure for other aftermarket companies too. they are top tier
Yes. I previously replaced my OEM brakes with Centric rotors bought from Rock Auto then recently went with Brembos due to the warranty.
I got a set of the galfer wave rotors and they absolutely screamed no matter what I did. I cleaned everything and rebedded the pads half a dozen times and even switched to organic pads thinking I was doing something wrong. Finally just tried different rotors and my brakes were dead silent
