do you have vented rear rotors?

If so, you need vented rear brembros. If you have solid rear rotors, then the brembros will work.

Personally.....I have had better success with the OEM rotors, but that's me.

Go to www.drivewire.com look up your cars rotors. I just got new front oem rotors(mountain) for my wifes forester and they have the best prices and free shipping! $103 shipped for 2 and they actually got here in 24 hours :shock: I highly recommend you check it out :)

I have solid rear and vented front Brembos. They are cross drilled/ slotted.

They have performed excellent for me. None of the horror stories about the problems with cross drilled/slotted rotors that are preached around the web have happend to me (warping etc..). From what i hear it just means I'm lucky ;)

I give them a thumbs up.

MK,

Had to search old ebay auction emails to find the date, I go them in mid september 2001, approx 15-18k miles on them to date.

I'm uncertain of how many sets of pads i've gone through.
