Default Rotors
I'm thinking about getting some XP10/8's, and was reading that it's probably best to either get my existing rotors resurfaced, or new rotors.

I'm not sure how much I have left on the stock rotors (25k~ miles), so I'm looking for some advice on what I should look at for new rotors, and what to stay away from.

Is there any reason to stay away from the brands of Autozone (DuraLast, Wagner, Wearever, NAPA) etc...???

You can get rotors from Carbotech when you order your XPs. Ask for the Centric blanks. I've gotten NAPA rotors in a pinch and they work fine.

I've used both napa rotors and the centric's from carbotech. No problems with either.

Carbotech will recommend new rotors when you get new race pads (XP8/10/12).
