ya.... no....


They're honestly not even that expensive. But if you just want brakes that work, buy whatever rotors and hawk pads. Go up to brembo blanks if you want better. You don't need much more on a street car.

If the rotors are still serviceable have them machined and throw on new pads call it a day.

Turned on a lathe.....Taking off the rust merely requires a quick trip around the block with you slamming on the brakes @ like 60 mph.
