[QUOTE="ddgermann, post: 170244, member: 3537"] You may be in for a shock. Here is a dealership quote for new rotors, pads and tires. USD [ATTACH type="full" alt="29341"]29341[/ATTACH] This was a couple years ago and I understand prices have fallen considerably as there are now aftermarket options available. Your rotors should be good for at least 4 sets of pads provided you don’t run them down too thin. I don’t know how good the aftermarket stuff is. It’s unlikely you will need to worry about new brakes for many years unless you’re on the track a lot. 👍 Edit: As a side note in my research on this a while back I read to watch the rears closely as if you’re driving the car hard routinely with the nannies on the rears will wear quicker than the fronts. Unlike some or those fools on YouTube who shut everything off. These guys have plenty of brakes left, but wear out fenders, doors and front clips at a fast pace. If you’re doing burnouts with your brakes on...same deal. [/QUOTE]
