NAPA Rotors???
I need new rotors and pads on my 97...the pedel is starting to push back at me when I stop...
I have seen posts before on the NAPA rotors they are like $25 each! the search won't get me any information on the forum...are they "you get what you pay for" or any good? I am not an auto-x'er just a weekend warrior on nice sunny days...also, what about AutoZones PFC pads with these??? anybody go this route and happy?
Cheers!

NAPA rotors
I tried the low-priced NAPA rotors, but must have gotten a bad pair. They were out of parallel and had to be surfaced. Other than that, they are decent. I use the Raybestors Quiet Stop pads. Much less dusting than the stockers. Take a look at the Raybestos rotors http://www.raybestos.com/usa/features/rotors.htm
The BruteStop and SuperStop are supposed to be very good. Brutestops are $50 each at RockAuto.
Look at these, too:

PFC Zrated are great! very good combo pad, same performance as stock pad on streets and can take the heat of some road track abuse.
i couldn't say about the napa's, i like the look of the eradispeeds too much

The NAPA rotors function very well, but the center portion tends to show rust after a short time. I think I'll probably paint the centers on a new set before I put them on.
The Autozone pads are guaranteed for life, but I'm sure it wouldn't take long for them to void this warranty if you trade them in 2 or 3 times a year.

I have been using NAPA rotors on my car for about a year now. No problems and I can't tell the difference in performance from stock. Obviously my car sees pretty extreme duty.
Last set I bought from the local NAPA warehouse had three labeled as Made in Canada and one Made in the USA. Visually, they are the same. As a note though, the "hats" aren't painted on these like stock. I go through them so fast that isn't a problem for me, but many who use them for the street paint the "hats" with high temp paint to prevent rust before putting them on.
I don't sweat the part numbers. I just walk into NAPA and say "four rotors for a 2002 Corvette." They've never let me down.

I don't think you will get two years from them either. You have nothing to worry about
