Howdy

Done a bunch of reading regarding brake rotor/pads for a 05 G35 coupe (Non brembo - but first year of the larger brakes). 95k miles. Current brakes warped badly in the front and new pads needed. Rears also warped, but pads have life. Rotors have not been replaced, just resurfaced.

Car is female driven 85% of the time, and the other 15% is agressively driven but not tracked.

If I am going for the "this just works" and "best bang for the buck" brake setup can you beat the Centric rotor and StopTech 309 pads?

Via RockAuto:

CENTRIC Part # 12042088 Premium Rotor-Preferred
RWD; Rear $41.79ea $83.58

CENTRIC Part # 12042080 Premium Rotor-Preferred
RWD; Front $63.99ea $127.98

CENTRIC Part # 30909050 StopTech Street Performance Brake Pads Rear $41.79

CENTRIC Part # 30908880 StopTech Street Performance Brake Pads Front
$54.79

Subtotal $308.14 + $48.54 shipping
Total $356.68

Local shop will put them on for $175.

Any comments/suggestions? Thanks

 

Well after doing a little more reading I was able to get R1 Concepts Eline drilled and slotted for less then the plain centrics. So I went that route.

Contact Steven via email for great pricing. Saved almost $50 over the Rockauto order I was about to place. Same pads.

 

Just in case someone finds this from searching, the R1 concepts rotoros were installed and I am quite happy with them. We are about a month in. No rusting on the rotors at all.
