I'm with Talon - PowerStop rotors have been excellent to me so far. Worth the tiny bit of extra cost. I have the pads too and love them, but I've never had issues with the centric ones either.
Any gotchas before I do the brakes on my 2016 6 GT?
I absolutely detest doing brake jobs. In my life I've done brake jobs on the following:
- and maybe my 92 Saturn SL, don't remember for sure.
Every single time the job has been a nightmare.
But this summer I've been spending far, far too much money and I need to try and save wherever I can, so I'm considering doing the front brakes on my 6 myself instead of giving my mechanic the job.
Are there any 'gotchas' I need to worry about? I recall on my Miata there is something about needing to back out a piston with an allen wrench instead of just pushing on it, for example.
Thanks,
Steve
