Civic is in need of some rotors.

I called a Honda dealer to see what they would run and they are aboiut $75 a pop.

Pepboys has them for around $25

Autozone I believe is around $30ish

I heard there were some cheap crap rotors…maybe pepboys and autozone that were made in China that came w/o a flat surface.

Not looking for anything performance wise…the car just needs to stop when i want it to

Where do u guys go

+1 Rock Auto

I also like World Auto Parts they only have a few locations but are dirt cheap.

Almost any rotor will allow your civic to stop. Cheap out, as they will only need to be replaced again.

Why, because you like paying more for inferior parts?

I put the el-cheepo Autozon rotors on my wife’s old prizm thinking “it’s a light econo car, like it matters”. Yeah, within a month they were pulsing like crazy. Last time I ever bought the cheapest rotors.

advanced autos prices arn’t as cheap as you’ll see with most autozone and pepboys parts, sometimes you luck out and their cheaper, but you get what you pay for in the end with them. I’ve heard alot of negative feedback about their “lifetime pad”, just chewing up rotors. Anyway in my opinion rotors at advance are quality and backed with a 2 year warrenty. I can honestly say that I havn’t had an issue yet.

I put 4 rotors in the cart and it was $16 for shipping, so overall it’s similar. will have to keep them in mind when having the part same day is not a big deal.

Lifetime pads are always the cheapest POS pads you can buy and are a joke. I worked at a Napa and people were always bitching about how they could get lifetime pads for $20 bucks at Autozone and the reason is they are JUNK.

Don’t forget no sales tax + 5% off coupons that are always available if you search for 2 seconds on google.

16 \* 4 -5% + 16 shipping = $76.80

25\*4 + 8.75% = $108.75

So yeah, you might like pissing away $32 just to get shittier rotors, but I’ll stick with rockauto. 🙂
