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 did mine pretty early solely because the OEM rotors were wearing like a vinyl record. Both the pads and rotors still had plenty of material—it was just a bad wear pattern. I went to Girodisc pads and rotors and have had them on happily ever since.
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 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.
why not switch to 2 piece giro disc slotted rotors or ap racing j hooks
I had similar issues with my girodsics when I got them. The bigger issue was the rotors were hitting the top of the caliper and SCREAMING even when I wasn’t braking. I got in contact with Girodisc and they sent me some more spacers to push the caliper away from the rotor a bit more.
Rotors (Girodiscs 2pc) have already been confirmed to be seeing 1500F temps. Cracked annd needing replacement after 10-12 days on track.
