Rotor and Pad Recommendations
 
Hey guys, I need to replace my rotors and pads all around and was wondering what you guys recommend, I'm on a bit of a budget, but not so much that I would want to put anything crappy on my car. Thanks.

Brembo blanks with OEM pads. If you do Solo or other form of racing, than consider upgrade the pads.

Brembo blanks with PBR ceramic pads. For a daily drive.

Go to damn part source or napa 20-30 a rotor and 20 for pads. Just as good as any other brake companies! If you want to spend more money i like the brembo blanks , stay away from kvr many horror stories about there rotors. Pads id get next to top notch a set of ceramics is fine!

you know I agree that cheap rotors would be fine... I'd rather replace the rotors 3 times than have to baby 'expensive' rotors. cheap economy rotors from Canadian Tire are just fine.

I have run them for 2 years no problems. Before you put them on id check them for warpage.

completely agree. although sometimes cheap semi-metallic pads like to squeel once in awhile. Next time my civic needs brakes, cheap NAPA parts it is.

^^ why would you change them every year? do you drive a whole lot of KMs or you just do it for kicks?
