After reading quite a few posts here it seems a lot of people are suggesting Brembo rotors so i found this from a website and i was thinking about just getting OEM brake pads.

I just want to make sure that i have the right rotors before i place an order. :-)

Regardless of what you do about the rotors, I recommend you get ceramic brake pads rather than OEM. You'll get the same performance, but WAY less brake dust.

Thank you everybody for your help, i have ordered the rotors and brake pads. Now my next project is installing them.

let the reading being. :-)

I have question regarding Rotors, will they just come off after i remove the caliper or there are screws attaching them with the rest of the parts?
