    True, I have upgraded mine so it is cheaper to get turned for me.
    Plus I have to take to a real brake shop to have them turned because they are slotted & dimpled.

    I see your point if running OEM

    With turning OEM one's here where I live they charge 10.00 per rotor to turn them so equals out to 40.00 for all 4.

    Well I really appreciate all the help guys. The amount of knowledge on these forums is incredible. I would be helpless without you guys. I'll be going out tomorrow to try and bend that shield a bit more so it stops. I was scared to move it to much because I wasn't sure what it was lol.

    Matt, I wish you lived just a litttttlllleeee closer so you could help me with doing all this work myself lol.

    I'm pretty sure I have warped front rotors, anyone have experience with Rock Auto brake kits or rotors? Are the standard ones fine, do I really need slotted and drilled? Money is tight, since I will need tires in the near future as well

    Centric black rotors. They're the only thing I use on my vehicles as well as customers at the shop. Dont bother with dimpled/slotted... more gimmick/bling than actual gain imo.

    true story. Wish i could get the crazy nice rotors...

    Matt, there are a couple of those centric options on Rock Auto, which one do you run? Economy, DD?

    Pads too? Seems pads on there are NOT ceramic and dust like crazy
