You think everything is a bunch of bull and you always buy the cheapest you can. We get it. Let it go. To each his own.
I have done a lot of work and found what works. I see no reason to spend more if the result is the same or close to it.
For some close is not good enough. So there is that to each his own.
There are some things in life I have found are a cut above the rest and I am willing to spend more in many cases for this better quality or ease of use.
I have not found brakes to be in this category. So many people are not really pros at brake jobs and their accidental lack of not having everything else in proper operating condition often greatly shortens the life of the pads or rotors they install. If you are are going to mess up a rotor in 1.5 years due to a sticking caliper then why waste a 95.00 one when you can waste a 42.00 one?
Let me rephrase my original post: That seems high. What year was this for?
There you go. But I am not one for brevity.
