Hey guys, I'm bringing this thread back b/c I have some questions pertaining to the topic at hand and didn't want to start ANOTHER brake/rotor thread...
I'm looking to replace mine on my own for the first time with the help of a friend who's done it before. I'm in the process of buying rotors and pads for both front and rear. Now my questions...
1. I have 70k on my 2002 EB V8. I'm not looking to do anything more than drive normally here and there, no towing/performance driving at all. Is there any reason whatsoever I would need to spend more on cross-drilled/vented rotors?
2. As far as the brake pads, should I go with ceramic? Is there any advantage (or danger) in getting normal OEM rotors but pairing them with ceramic pads?
3. Is bleeding the system really necessary? Would I be ok if I don't do this? After all, this is truly a beginner's project for me. I'm not sure if my buddy ever bled the system and I'm not trying to press my luck here.
4. Finally, assuming I go with the OEM rotors, I'm guessing the ones at AutoZone are perfectly acceptable? Is there anything I should look out for or maybe watch out for in terms of quality?
Here are the ones I'm looking at...
