Default Brake rotor

Anybody use the AC Delco brand rotors? They are only about 25 bucks at Rock, Summit and Jegs? I know it's not the AC Delco that was quality in the day.

That hole alignment is common with most rotors. I use NAPA premiums since shipping rotors cost more then the part. I think most are imported now so it doesn't matter. Unlike other chain stores I haven't see the NAPA rotors delaminate like I saw with the rotors on my son's GMC. They were bad at 10k miles. The NAPA's dial in pretty good most of the time if the axle is prepped, I have dialed them in to 001" runout without turning a chip.

I agree with Gary. I try to stick to NAPA premium on any standard replacement parts I buy. Many of them are still made in the USA (though not all.)
