Which are the best and economic brake rotors

Hi

I'm planning on changing the OEM brake rotors of my Civic for ventilated ones. Which ones would be good, and cheap?

IMO this is upgrade on your car that should not be cheap, you should get a good wuality system either from brembo, AEM, etc... try to find the cheapest or these but not son imitation ones from e-bay


remember you can get a rip-off CAI and no harm done, but don't get cheap brakes.............

check out ww.irotors.com they use brembo brake pads.. and cut the slots and drill the holes themselves.. i ordered a pair for 110 shipped.. should be come in in a few dayz, i also bought aem/nissin brake pads to go with it..

hopefully my squeeking and horrible brake groan will go away after this upgrade

The AEM big brake kit is the way to go it will cost about 500-550 with the AEM pads installed.

I think the Willwood kit is the best bang for the buck. About $600 for new rotors and calipers. The AEM kit doesn't come with new calipers.
