I am a big fan of Centric 120-series brake rotors and either Akebono ProAct or EBC RedStuff pads.

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.

Pros: great rotor, held up well, look almost brand new

Vehicle: Subaru

Mileage: 20000 km

As others said, rockauto for parts. CENTRIC rotors are considered the best. Pad choice will only affect brake dust levels for street driving.

Pros: rotors considered the best

Cons: brake dust levels

Hatte schon Brembo, Ate, Textar, Ferodo, TRW und Pagid verbaut. Vom reinen Bremswirkung fand ich Textar immer am Besten, da war aber auch nach spätestens 50.000 km Schluss mit den Scheiben. Ate war gefühlt ein My schlechter in der Bremswirkung, dafür aber sehr sehr haltbar - die goldene Mitte eben. Mit Brembo habe ich nur schlechte Erfahrungen gemacht, die Scheiben hatten nach 2.000 km Schlag, die Beläge wurden ziemlich schnell hart und quietschten wie Sau und besonders lang hielten sie auch nicht - dafür waren sie genau so teuer wie Ate. Habe aktuell Ferodo drauf, die waren günstig und bisher nach ca. 25.000 km absolut unauffällig.

Pros: gute Bremswirkung, haltbar

Cons: schnelle Abnutzung, quietschen

Vehicle: Opel Vectra B

Mileage: 50000 km

Yes. I previously replaced my OEM brakes with Centric rotors bought from Rock Auto then recently went with Brembos due to the warranty.

Cons: short warranty

It looks like you got the C-tek ones, which don't have any protective coating on the non-wear surfaces, which is why you see the rust.

Cons: no protective coating

Vehicle: Volkswagen Tiguan
