Just curious if anyone had experience for Brembo replacement rotors on G35 Coupe.

All of my rotors have a deep lip and need to be replaced soon. I just can't make myself pay $500+ for a set of rotors. Even lower brands seem to be running $400+.

Any good options others have found? I've seen things like Duralast from Autozone at $160 for a set, and 2 year warranty and that tempts me.

Thanks

Beck Arnley anyone? Seems I found a decent deal on a full set of them for $200 or so. When at Advance Auto they are $300+.

You get what you pay for. Unfortunately owning a G35 with Brembo option is not a inexpensive car to maintain. I sell the stoptech slotted rotors, front/rear option for $415 shipped.

Blank face cryo treated stoptech rotors front/rear, $335 shipped.

Yeah, I'll be happy with a cheap option that gets me a couple years. Probably going with a Centric blank rotor for around $220.

With the design of those brembo brakes good luck with getting 2yrs. Hell most couldn't get 2 yrs out of the OEM rotors because of warping issues.

Yeah, my current ones are getting a touch of warping/noise now. But I have no clue how old they are, very deep lip on them from the pads and rear pads are about done. Guy I got them from has ceramic pads and I don't like them in the rain/cold days.

For $220 if I get over a year and then can afford better I'll do it. If I could have found some good slotted for under $300 I probably would have done that. But being a DD slotted isn't that important.
