Brakes an Rotors suggestion

So I finally got my new tires (DWS contis) mounted this weekend however I was told by firestone that im due for new rotors and brakes however I did not like the price quote, lol.

I would like to know what would you guys recommend for rotors and brakes for my max, I did some looking around in previous thread and saw something about an Alienbrake brand....

I don't do any track racing just normal highway driving and would like to know what you guys would recommend for rotors and brake pads

than you in advanced.

I am about 52 k

its a 2009

I did check the rear rotors and I can tell it does have a rigid line, I didn't know if I could just get it resurfaced. Also I did look at the stillen rotors from the provided link and damn those are expensive....

I think I need something cheaper than that lol

Yes the stillen ones are nice but a little to much for me the reason why I'm asking you how many miles you have is because my last oil change I had at my nissan dealership I was told I needed new pads at 45k miles I took my car to a local tire shop and they showed me the old pads and said I could still get another 20k miles on them

I own and operate a repair shop and we have great success using centric brake parts. We use centric pads rotors brake pad hardware ebrake parts etc without any trouble. They offer entry level all the way to original equipment + products. They are the parent company to powerstop if you want to go with a performance brake product. Good luck.
