Meyle rotors on ebay or Amazon are great value. I have been using them for years and my brakes get hard use (track). They are probably 1/2 the cost of Porsche rotors and are just as good

I disagree about Textar (Porsche)OE pads. They are good pads and good stopping power, but as they are not ceramic pads, they are very dusty. There are better choices out there. It somewhat depends on your use, Street, AX, Track?
For street driving, you won't go wrong with Meyle rotors and Powerstop pads and save a lot of $$$

I may get slammed as this is a Pelican owned forum, but there are other websites that are better priced. Pelican does have good cust. service and are easy to deal with, but could have better pricing
