Default NAPA ROTORS

I've been buying parts to do the C5 brake upgrade on my 93 and today I called NAPA to get a price on rotors, with our corporate discount the price is $21.79. Needless to say that is a terrific price, has anybody had any experience with the NAPA rotors?

Are you sure you are getting the correct rotors? I got mine from NAPA and I'm friends with the owner, I paid $99 each. That's for the J55 equivalent.

The J55 rotors are for the C4 and yes they are about 100.00, these are the C5 rotors and that is what I was quoted, I ordered them and I'll pick them up tomorrow, also was quoted 70.00 for the ceramic pads. I'll let you know how it goes.

I picked up the rotors and pads today and the finish quality looks pretty good, The rotors are American made by United Brake Parts which is NAPA's main brake supplier. The pads came complete with high temp lubricant and the anti-noise pads. I still can't believe the price on those rotors, but I'm not complaining.

I'm running NAPA rotors on both my daily driver Bimmer and my wife's MPV minivan and no problems with either. In fact, I've NEVER been beat by NAPA parts. :thumbs:
