My rear are squealing, absolutely no idea what brand that is. All I know is that they won't last to much longer

Fronts get near to there end as well and all rotors are in equal state.

Can't lie, not to keen about the fact that all has to be done at once but so be it. Thing is, I got fancy wheels so less dust = more better

I have decided not go for akebono, importing them is not worth it for me to be honest.



I would agree on OEM rotos though, but I guess they are hella expensive no?

A few years ago I tried to go aftermarket rotors and I had a really bad experience. They scored like hell and I had squeaking issues really quickly. I replaced them with OEM rotors, haven't had a problem since.

My 2c, sample size of one.

I'm running Akebono ACT's with cheap Raybestos "R-Line" rotors; 96691R (front) and 96472R (rear) with no issues. They've been in service for ~20k miles.
