Somehow my last post inadvertantly landed in the non-tech chat zone...time to beat a death horse again.

Anybody have experience with EBC rotors? Currently looking for good, dependable rotors and pads. Not seeking high performance, just solid dependability for stock wheeling and highway use.

I've been pointed towards Centric rotors and Hawk LTS pads. I like the price point. Any seconds to that recommendation?

Thanks!

EBC are way more expensive. You don't need "high performance rotors" unless you have huge tires or you're autocrossing your XJ. Centric is fine, but there are less expensive choices out there, it's a chunk of cast iron for crying out loud. Performance Friction pads work great for me.

I'll second this recommendation. LTS pads are really good, and Centric rotors are all you need.

Thanks for the replies, folks!

Going to go with Centric rotors and LTS pads.

Bustedback, at $35 per Cenric rotor, are there really cheaper options with equivalent quality? Even the cheap Autozone rotors are $28. I'm less concerned with rotor metallurgy and more interested in a well cast and machined part.

The rotors all look the same after a few thousand miles. The Centric rotors will go you right. Make sure to hand torque your lugs to 100lbsft and use a wire brush on the hub mating surfaces to insure warp free rotors.

They are all manufactured by blind, deaf & dumb 5 year old amputees so there really is 0 difference other than the price you pay.
