after market rotors and pads

[pothole]

Well, the key question is the price-to-longevity ratio. If they cost three times as much, they're going to need to last three times longer. I'm far from convinced that's the case.

I always buy proper parts when I think they're worth it - bought a Porsche water pump and proper Behr rads when I did my cooling system overhaul last year. But regards rotors, I'm with thstone: expensive rotors is money blown. That's been my experience on and off track.

Problem with the Chinese is one size fits all. I did the rotors on my Nissan Altama with 100K on the original rotors. The Chinese one's fit no problem, but they were smaller in diameter. My pads actually where kissing the outer edge of the rotor. Ok, they where only about $20 a piece and worked just fine.
