CentricParts 121.40046 C-Tek Standard Brake Rotor

great product, great price

I ordered these rotors for my 2003 Honda Pilot after receiving a bid from my local mechanic for a couple hundred dollars to replace my warped ones. The rotors were perfectly milled and balanced. They fit onto my SUV perfectly, and have performed great.For those who may be new to replacing rotors, they come shipped in sealed plastic bags, and coated in a preservative grease. You need to make sure and use a degreaser product (available at any grocery, hardware, or auto-parts store) to remove the grease before you install. This will ensure the rotors perform well, and will prevent them from smoking for the first few days. Luckily, a mechanic friend of mine tipped me off to this.It took awhile for them to arrive (about 9 days), but I chalk that up to the fact that I selected the free super-saver shipping, I live on the West Coast, and these items shipped from the East Coast.So, if you can plan ahead a little bit to get these items, they are well worth your while. Using these, and doing my own work to replace them, saved me over $200!

These rotors (front and rear, I've submitted the same review for the rear ones) are still going strong after 17K miles. They're nothing fancy, just OE type replacement rotors. To be honest, I'm not sure why I bought them, though I'll assume it was based on reviews I read probably elsewhere (though possibly here. Though there are not many on this model, I'd guess there are more reviews on different models of this same rotor). I'd recommend them.

I paired these with Monroe ceramic pads for my 2004 Acura TSX, and have been pleased with the performance until last fall I have returned pulsations, looks like I will be taking these off to get them turned soon after 35k miles so I think they have held up well so far.

PROS: Cheap, fits well, did I mention CheapCONS: heavy machining marks probably are pretty rough on brake friction material until they wear away, and these rust easilyI put these on the front of my 2000 Honda Odyssey minivan since the OEM rotors were pretty bad. They did the trick, and were a great value.I trust Centric brakes since they are the parent company of STOPTECH and Power Slot which are premium lines.

Ordered the rotors on Dec 19 and was billed on 20th. Since it qualifies for free shipping, I took advantage of it. I was provided a UPS tracking # that does not return any result until the 29th when it finally say"item in transit". To make things worse, the expected delivery date is Jan 5, 2010. Give me a break!, this is 16 days after I placed the order. IF I ONLY KNEW IT WOULD THIS LONG, I WON"T EVEN BOTHER ORDERING THIS ITEM FROM AMAZON OF ALL PLACES. This is a turnoff and could be the last time I'm ordering through AMAZON. This is a lesson I want to share with you all and hopefully you don't fall for the same b.s.

They are smooth. & don’t rush.

I bought these rotors to cure the lumpiness in my brakes but needed to be as thrifty as possible. I have purchased expensive performance rotors in the past and expectations were not met. Not these. They are very smooth and fit perfectly. No need to spend a lot for rotors. These work.
