Don't know much about brakes, but I have the same problem could be your bushings they need to be replaced

I end brake threads lol. Sounds like you're not too picky about your brakes. For oem quality you can get pricey oem or go to rockauto.com or some place similar and get Centric premium rotors which are powdercoated black on the hats to prevent rust. You can also get cheaper Raybestos premium or Wagner and sand/spray paint a few coats before installation (don't get brake cleaner on it or it will smear). I've used all those brands and it's all similar in terms of brake quality. It only matters how many steps you're willing to do yourself. I actually use slotted rotors and think they're useless in general. So save yourself a buck or two. For brake pads I prefer Stoptech 309 (Street Performance). They will put your eyeballs through the windshield just resting your foot on the brake pedal lol. For a little less grabiness but less dust, just get Wagner Thermoquiet pads and call it a night. I'm not a fan of Hawk or EBC green pads. Just my $0.02. Good luck and good riddance lol.

No, he's reffering to putting 05/06 brakes on your 03. Non-brembo.

They will clear the wheels
