The ones that stop?

I think you need to look more towards pads than rotors. They make more of a difference than a rotor would.

$225.00!!?!?!?!
Don't buy.
225$ = all new rotors and pads and fluid and probably change left over
Seriously, the Duralast rotors are sufficient.

True, I guess I should have said "You can find rotors for a cheaper price that will work just as well".

ive tried brembo to stock to autozone. they all seemed the same for me except the only good thing was that autozone has a 1/2/3 year warranty depending on the ones you purchase.

i also changed the autozone rotors out recently and no questions were asked. they just looked at the receipt and gave me a new set

No, over priced.

And please read the auction carefully, those are for all Integra Excluding Type R. Meaning they are 4 lug.

And for what its worth, don't get the cross drilled brembos. I had a set, and with only street use, they started to stress crack.

That's because the rears are like 50-55 a piece, fronts are still only around 40-50 depending where you live, you don't replace rear rotors as much as the fronts so they are still the best deal

Quote (nsxtasy)Keep in mind, ITR 05082 lives in Germany, so there is no Autozone near him.

Yes we have little choice on auto parts for JapanCars and in the USA is much choice so I always buy in USA or JAPAN.
