    mukhang magpapalit na ko ng brake rotors.


    saan kaya makakabili ng surplus or new inexpensive rotors?

    mukhang warped na yung front right sakin eh. yung rear right drum naman sometimes get stuck, after driving for around 12 kilometers.

    is it better to have them resurfaced or repaired? or get oem new ones? or get some surplus in evangelita?

    any suggestions guys?

    I bought a couple of Federal Mogul rotors a little less than a year ago for a Toyota. That was because I found the OEM's price too prohibitive. And so far, they're doing pretty well. If I remember correctly, I was pleasantly surprised at how decent the price was.

    I bought them at Kenrick Trading , 385-B Banawe, almost fronting Dencio's (or is it Gerry's?) Grill. (It pays to keep the business/calling card :nerd: )

    bardigones, it would help if you specified the make and model of your car.

    Kung pang mitsu, you could try eldorado. mura lang ang replacement rotors dun.

    nga pala. I'd dissuade you from getting surplus rotors. Di ka nakakasigurado sa history nun, and besides, baka may warpage. You cant tell warpage with the naked eye because even one as much as 1/2 of the width of a strand of human hair can cause vibration.

    El Dorado is right, lalo na for Mitsubishi. Meron sa Megamall, sa Pedro Gil, at may isa pa, di ko na maalala.
