Before I buy

Alright, so time has come for me to buy new brakes and rotors, 75,000 miles has done my current ones in.

I am looking at Hawk HPS Street Pads for the front and Satisfied Pro Perform OEM Pads for the rear. Brembo blanks for the front and just having the old rotors for the rear turned.

Any Comments or thoughts?

I just had my brakes done, and the rears were in pretty bad shape as well. I'm @ 65K miles.

It looks like the previous owner changed the front rotors, and left the rears (had them turned at the time)

The fronts were actually in a lot better shape than the rears.

I suggest you get the rears too. They're ony $30 each (brembo). It will probably cost you $15 to turn them, so might as well get em brand new.
