Default Is this the proper part # for Centric replacement rotors

I have been using Centric Premiums on my evo and they are affordable and great. Looking for a set for the ITR for a track day coming up in early July.

Can anyone help me out and tell me if these are the proper dimensions? It looks to be correct, but if anyone can confirm I would appreciate it.

Front:

Rear:

I looked around and for some reason these seem to be a thinner than a stock rotor. Not sure what is up with that.

What sort of pad are folks using for street/track duty these days? My Axxis Ultimates are going to need replacement. I have a new set for the rear, but what should I run up front? Hawk? I need something that isn't going to squeal up front. I am running a really aggressive ceramic on the evo and the squealing makes me want to shoot myself. I need a good pad that can do double duty to the track and back.


Thanks in advance,

Ken

Hmmm after looking around Brembo blanks aren't much more expensive

The rear is correct, the front is not.

Tire Rack sells Centric rotors and shows the part numbers. They have the same part number for the rear ITR rotors as your Amazon link (120.40042) but they show a different part number for the front ITR rotors (Tire Rack has 120.40026, your Amazon link has 120.40036). Which is probably why your Amazon link says it does not fit an ITR if you enter your car info in the "Make Sure it Fits" box on that website.

Tire Rack's prices are less but Tire Rack charges for shipping, which may be free with Amazon.

For more prices on rear rotors, click here.

I recently searched prices on front rotors and found these:

Duralast Gold $40 Autozone
Duralast $31 Autozone
Cryo-Stop $44 Tire Rack
Brembo $41 Tire Rack
Centric $37 Tire Rack
Stock $90 list $67 Delray Acura
Stoptech slotted (not 2-piece) $104 King Motorsports
Brembo slotted $111 Tire Rack
Powerslot slotted $96 King Motorsports $93 Tire Rack
Powerslot Cryo slotted $123 Tire Rack
EBC slotted/dimpled $79 Import Replacement Parts
ATE $71 Tire Rack
EBC Ultimax slotted $69 Import Replacement Parts
DBA 4X4 $100 Tire Rack $96 Import Replacement Parts
DBA 4000 $113 Tire Rack $122 Import Replacement Parts
Mugen $178 King Motorsports
Stoptech Aero $423 King Motorsports
Rotora Drilled/Slotted $108 Import Replacement Parts
Rotora Slotted $90 Import Replacement Parts
Stillen 1-piece Slotted $218 Import Replacement Parts
Stillen 1-piece Pillar Vein $347 Import Replacement Parts

When I needed some rear rotors recently, I discussed my needs (cost effective that would hold up to track use) with the folks at Tire Rack, and they recommended the Cryo-Stop rotors, which are Centric rotors that have been cryo-treated. So far they're working fine. I've also had good results with Autozone, etc.

I use Hawk HP+ pads and I've been extremely happy with them. They hold up well to the heat of track use, and they don't squeal at all. I'm getting 500-600 actual track miles to a set of front pads. The only downside is they dust a lot, but the dust washes off easily. For current prices on front pads, click here. I recently bought some from Discountperformanceautoparts.com and they arrived two days later, no problems.
