sensors just went off, need new rotors and pads all the way around and sensors now.

Question, atlantic british has stock pads and rotors for 629 + shipping, or should I go cheap route through them rotors and textar pads for 329 +shipping or top end with EBC rotors and EBC pads for 729?

What do you guys recommend or is there a better option. Plan on keeping 06 LR3 HSE another few years at a min.

I would highly recommend the EBC premium slotted rotors and green stuff pads. 80k miles and they are still great. Picked up the last set on Amazon.

First of all, I'm not a brand conscious person when it comes to brakes or tires; because tires have a QC value to them, but brakes are all subjective and their reviews are worthless.

If your plan is a few years, then get pads that cost the least and say that they're the least dust.

WHY get new rotors??? Sounds like sales BS to me. LOOK at them and either they need replacing, or they need re-surfacing, or they need nothing but wearing ing from the new pads.

Save money if it saves resources being used needlessly.
