Brake Rotors Made in USA

Hey guys, looking for some quality brake rotors. Mine are about finished. Pad suggestions would be nice too.

Thanks,

Randy

I had a hard time trying to find a rotor that was balanced, I have a pair of Centric fully machined rotors on my truck and they work great but I am still trying to find a pad that will wear, they don't seem to wear out.
I have some pictures when I get back.

Who I went with for my super duty rotors and pads.

I know there are several members on here who have also used them.

Local shop has messed with them all, except performance parts. They've settled on the Chinese ones, but true them up on the lathe before install.

Yeah, my chinese NAPA's were so far out that I could spin the hub when I got them on and see them wobble.

I installed their slotted and dippled rotors and they give you free semi metalic pads. Those guys make everything in house in ohio. I can safely say the parts did not seem cheaply made at all.

I just got an email from Brake performance they have 10%off their slotted and dimpled rotors. Free shipping and free pads come with. Good deal if you ask me. So far I really like the set I bought late last year.
