Where do you guy's buy new rotors and pads? My brakes are getting low, and I'm gonna go to vegas in a month, so I think I'd better change them before the trip.

I'm looking for aftermarket, but kind of cheapish as I don't do any performance driving so it doesn't need to be race ready.

Stock brakes, maybe slotted/drilled rotors (IDK the quality on most) and aftermarket pads. Looking to spend about $300.

Thanks.

I'm assuming you need only the front replacements?

Get yourself some oem replacement brembo blanks. Should be about $100 for a pair. There are lots of pads selection. I prefer Akebono ProAct ceramic pads because I get almost no brake dust out of them. Bites better than OEM pads too. It cost be about $70 for the front pads.

No need to get drilled/slotted rotors unless you want it for the looks. You don't really benefit from the design when you're daily driving, and a good quality one will run you near your $300 budget.

No, sorry I want to do a complete front and rear job. I was thinking the 88 rotors setup, since it runs about 250 (last time i saw on ebay...) idk.

I thought about the brembo blanks, but that runs atleast 300 for a full set, and I still have to buy pads...anybody else?

i think the company was brakeworld.com or something where you can get 4 crossdrilled and slotted brake rotos with a lifetime warranty and pads too all for $200 shipped... I honestly don't know a thing about this product in terms of quality but I was hoping you'd be the guinea pig.. however you spell it..

Who's gonna be the brave one to try these outs? Its strange, I can't find anything good... or bad...about them.

I think I'd go with 88 rotors.com over them. It's only 50 bucks more, and you get axxis pads. Anybody have any feedback on them? Thanks.
