Best Place to Purchase OEM Brakes

Hey guys - I've been off the boards for awhile, and it's about that time to replace my rotors and pads.

Who has the best prices on OEM or comparable rotors and pads these days? I don't need anything slotted or drilled as my G is just my daily driver.

Thanks

Check CZP or Brakeperformance for rotors

You can get new pads from infinitipartsusa for a little over 100 for a full set of pads.

Why don't you just have the rotors refinished if you are staying OEM?

I figured the $$ I'd pay to have a shop resurface them can be better put to new rotors as I'll be doing the work myself

Not sure if you would want OEM stuff. I hate the OEM stuff because of squeals.

Thats the other thing. You can get better quality slotted and/or drilled for about the same price as OEM.

I went with Adams rotors.

Would it make more sense to just go with Stoptech rotors and normal ceramic pads at this point?

Yeah squeals when you brake reversing or stopping.

Yeah well it doesn't matter unless your going to track your car. For daily driving that is fine. I got EBC rotors with hawk brake pads and I loved them expect for the fact that my brake pads wore out so fast. So, I am going to get ferodo brakes in about a week or so.
