I went with Raybestos for the rotors and pads this time since they’re a brand I’ve used before and trust for consistency.
For rotors, raybestos is a solid bang for your buck and I haven’t had any problems with them
I did mine pretty early solely because the OEM rotors were wearing like a vinyl record. Both the pads and rotors still had plenty of material—it was just a bad wear pattern. I went to Girodisc pads and rotors and have had them on happily ever since.
Look for rotors made from high-carbon iron. High carbon rotors are going to handle heat and resist cracking/warping better than normal grey-iron rotors. They don't have to be extremely expensive either.
Raysbestos Street Performance rotors are high carbon and probably available on Rockauto.
Element3 rotors are A++
I've had great luck with Raybestos Element 3 rotors..
For rotors, you’re lighting money on fire if you get anything other than a set of non coated blanks. You aren’t going fast enough, or running long enough sessions to get them so hot that you need drilled and slotted in an attempt to drop every degree you can off the heat sinks, especially if you aren’t pushing for the full session. A quick browse on RockAuto shows that the cheapest drilled and slotted is just under x3 the price of a Raybestos blank. You can warp a set every weekend and still be way ahead (I promise you won’t warp a set every weekend unless you’re abusing the brakes).
OEM rotors rust like that in snowy areas, they look unevenly worn. If it gets a little worst you’re going to replace the pads and rotors. Ray bestos makes pads/rotors coated with zinc that won’t rust like the OEM ones.
why not switch to 2 piece giro disc slotted rotors or ap racing j hooks
Get Advics as they're closest to OEM money can buy, stay away from Raybestos i've had nothing but quality issues when I got those rotors.
