Finally after having my rotors warped for almost a year. Finally got the money for new Centric hubs, cross drilled and slotted rotors, and new pads! Looks amazing and rides 10x better.

Should have powder coated or painted the calipers.

I got the centric 2 piece hub and rotor! That way I only need rotors next time. I got 60k now and never swapped brakes at all. So my pads were pretty wore down. And my rotors had chips all in them and was a horrible ride.

Default Purchase from where?

Those are some dang nice hubs! Few questions.
Where did you get them from and how much?
Regarding the spindle nut, how did you retorque it back to factory specs?
Did you buy all of this from one place as a kit or piece it together from different suppliers?

Thank you.

Thank you.
Where: Rock Auto, AutoAnywhere, A-1-Auto, Zeckhausen and I believe Amazon to name a few.
Price: depends on where you buy
Spindle Nut: you don't want to reuse that, replace.

You can buy just the hubs or a whole kit. You can also get the 6 lug or 7 lug hubs (I have a 7 lug set). Haven't put mine on yet, but with 7 lugs, best to get them while I could (and did)
