Brake discs Centric or OEM Volkswagen

Centric Brake discs

I always use centric semi e-coated rotors (everything is e-coated except for the rotor face). I never had issues with them on any car.

Pros: reliable, no issues

You can get 4 for the price of one Subaru branded one on rockauto, and that includes known brands like Bosch and Brembo. I personally have used Centric rotors on everything I have owned for a decade now and they do the job just fine.

Pros: good performance, cost effective

Centric Brake discs

I buy Centric from Rock Auto. Then I have my local shop install them. Labor is $165 for an "axle" (so $330 front and back) and rotors/pads cost me about $125 a pair or $250 for all four.

Pros: good quality, cost effective

One of my front rotors on my 2019 was showing significant grooving by about 1500 miles. At 12k miles, it isn't really all that much worse. No pulsing or judder.

Pros: no pulsing or judder
Cons: significant grooving

my brakes started to vibrate a bit when braking at or above 70mph, and it's only progressively gotten worse. From the first inspection (always at the same dealer I bought it from), I've asked the techs to double check the rotors, as it just didn't seem right to me, but they always brushed it off as normal and no big deal. I just took it in for an inspection (now at 22,700~ miles), and they tell me that yes, my rotors are warped, and that I'll need to replace the rotors and pads to alleviate the issue.

Pros: no issues with pads
Cons: rotors warped, vibration when braking

Shaking issues happened around 20k. Replace the front rotors 526+ tax, and rear rotors need to be replaced soon (30k)... The quality of the OEM part is not good

Cons: quality not good
