Replacing rear brakes

Hi guys this is my first time posting here. So I have a g37 base sedan and I need to replace the rear brakes. I was hoping to get a solid rear brake set that is under $100 and doesn't require new rotors. Any recommendations would be awesome. Thanks!

Have your rotor thickness checked, if they're still ok then a good set of pads is all you need, although at this point a full brake fluid flush would be a good plan. Stoptech has a new street pad (this isn't the same as their previous street pad) it is similar to oem w/ improved bite but not the excess dusting like the previous version.
Here's the part# for the rear base sedan brakes

Might want to do the front too w/ a matching pad set, would be a better plan IMO.

AutoAnything has Centric Premium rotors and PosiQuiet ceramic pads (both are OEM equivalent or better) for under $110. I plan on ordering a set within the next few weeks, as my pads are getting low. Like someone else said, you may want to check your rotor thickness/quality to see if those are needed too.

I payed 330 at infiniti for new rear brakes and resurfaced rotors. Not bad and I trust the dealer over anywhere else. I'd do it myself but hard to find time with 60 hr weeks.

Agreed!

Here is a photo of my local dealer prices on brakes.

Even if I had the time I'd rather trust the dealer since your life and the life of others depends on brakes and tires.
Always nice to drive a new loaner vehicle while the dealer does the work.

FWIW I'm still on my original factory OEM pads and rotors at almost 88k miles

Oops. 330 was with the oil change as well. But yeah, Some things like brakes and trans fluid service better left to the dealer or a mechanic that knows your car.
