AB has fronts for 65$ auto zone has em for 45. aside from supporting AB, any reason to go one way or another?

 

Get the ones from AutoZone, I have them and I'm happy.

 

that makes life easy, thank you

 

Rover's North Has Rotor and Pad combos for about 100 per axle plus shipping if you need rotors as well.

 

I had autozone pads on my D1 and they didn't last more than a year. Not to mention TONS of brake dust! I replaced pads and rotors at the same time and when they got down to 5%, i replaced them with pads from Napa...only $45 and they bite a lot more than the autozone pads did and i'm going on my 2nd year with them and i drive about 15k per year.

I just don't trust Autozone branded products anymore for wear and performance. It will always be the last resort choice for me.

 

Danny-the second I think im getting out of something cheap you go and tell me something like that, idk if I can afford to pass that up. It's a shame bc I have a 15%off coupon for AB. Wish they were running that sale.
Vegas-way to complicate my decision! Haha. It was all cut and dry until you told me what I already knew, that autozone makes crappy stuff. Looks like I'll be doing some research.

 

Not to really confuse you but, if you're going to replace the front rotors, you might want to think about slotted.

Land Rover Discovery SP Performance Slotted Solid Front Rotors - T03-1314 by SP Performance

 

Slotted rotors are primarily for heat dissipation arent they? It says on the site they help fade and wear but I mean, honestly, by how much? My truck does MAYBE 5k miles a year and I don't do a lot of high speed cornering. Haha. Do you think slotted rotors are still justified? I'd be interested to hear why if so.

 

Slotted are not recommended for off-road, too many places for dirt and crap to reside, why would you need slotted, it ain't a race car you know. If it were a Porsche like I used to drive i would say go with the slotted, how would slotted be a benefit on a slow dancing pig in mud such as a Discovery in it's natural environment, really now.

Might as well lower it and put 22's on it and a big kicker bass system with neon underneath you know bro.

 

That's my next thread. Don't ruin the surprise.
