Default Help: Rear brakes and rotors

So it's time to replace my rear rotors and brakes. I haven't seen much info on brakes other than the fact that people buy rotors that don't line up with the screw holes. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction for rotors and pads that are a perfect fit for the rear. Slotted, drilled, oem, whatever. I just need rotors and brake pads whether it's a kit or a separate. If anyone could link me to some, I would appreciate it greatly!

i've heard that centric rotors have all the provisions for the retaining screws and access holes for the rear drum adjustment, everything that OEM has. not sure where to get them however. i like to run OEM toyota/lexus pads myself so that's can be bought at a dealership or online store.

have you shopped at rockauto yet?

The screws are nice, but they really aren't needed.
