Recommendations on Brake rotors

[gborree]

I am replacing the brakes on the 2003 2wd beast and would like to know if anyone has found some good prices on good rotors and pads. Thanks for the assist!

I've had these for over a year and they are great quality.

I used these and they've been very good, and dust free. But any of them with ceramic pads should serve you well. The Gen 2 Expies have very good brakes (large), so they're not too hard on the rotors.

What ones did you buy from RockAuto? I love that website. I need new front rotors myself.

i don't recall, but they were listed as the most popular ones bought. they have more expensive ones, cross drilled/slotted etc, but just kept it basic. thanks.

I really like RockAuto, both from a price point and quick service. The only issue with rotors is that Rock charges actual shipping on parts, and with the weight of rotors, it is expensive. 65 lbs. is about the weight of a pair for the Exp.

Auto Zone currently has a 20% discount on purchases of $125 or more, with free home shipping. I just purchased a pair of Brembo front rotors from AZ for $51 ea. plus tax, free shipping. Ceramic pads were $36. I did a lot of price checking before I made the purchase and this was the best deal available that I found. Other rotor options from AZ were in the mid $40's. I only chose the Brembo's from prior good experience with their products. Auto Zone had several options from various suppliers.

good info. i think i paid about $15 each, so even with shipping it was viable. thanks.

I know I got mine done locally and they are 4 mths old and have been squealing since I got them. Rotors and pads. I will be doing them on my own from now on
