I am just too lazy right now to do it myself...They charge $100 to do a complete four wheel service. I called Firestone to find out what they wanted, and it was $300!

How can a brake job vary by $200? That's nuts...

when I recently did my front brakes, I went the cheap route and purchased some rotors from autozone along with some cheap pads and some new calipers since the other ones had torn seals and for the cheap price I paid, they work pretty well.
