Default Brakes

I'm looking to replace my rotors on my 06 xlt 4x4. I do not drive my truck hard and my wallet is not as fat as I would like it to be. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

what price range are you in? you can get cheap rotors at the auto stores but you get what you pay for.


i put some EBC Ultimax slotted rotors on my 02. fronts were $250 and so were the rears. no complaints about em. threw a set of thermoquiets on both the front and rear. thats another $50 per set.

dont cheap out on rotors man.

Try the promo code ES123 on advanced auto parts website and select pick up in store.. Keep your purchases batched into $50 dollar increments and you will save $20 on every 50... I did the rear brakes on my truck with ceramic pads, new rotors, brake cleaner, shop towels, and even new wiper blades for under $95 bucks total!
The key is to make 2 or even 3 separate transactions not exceeding the total of $50... I bought one rotor at a time + pads in one transaction, then another rotor, brake cleaner and wipers (also on sale) in another transaction... I did the front brakes this way too... You just can't beat the savings of this coupon code when used strategically...
