I need help, I'm soo confused.
I've searched and read through quite a few threads and I still can't figure out what I need to get. My pads are worn (63k miles) and my rotors have plenty of life but they're warped. The cost of having them turned is the same as buying a new cross-drilled rotor so I'd rather replace the front rotors.
I've found aftermarket to be much cheaper than OEM. I'm trying to figure out if I have Akebono or Bosch or if it even matters.
I had the Brake Fix done, the sticker on the back plate says "Bosch", so does that mean I have Bosch?? Does anyone's actually say Akebono??
So, what if I order the 350mm (Akebono) instead of the 320mm (Bosch), does it matter??
Does anyone have long term experience with Burtman's kit or the EBC stuff that Discount Tire is selling??
This is what I've found so far w/ free shipping, what do you guys think??
