Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has tried the Raybestos Professional Grade rotors maybe with OEM pads or Hawk HPS pads?

I have looked, but nothing on the professional grade rotors.

They are about $50 (tax included) a piece for front. I assume the rear is not that much different.

Any experience or input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I am surprised to see many aftermarket users of pads and rotors, but no one tried Raybestos?

No one at all? :(

im on magnum rotors and hawk pads, they're ok they stop the car in a hurry! but the pads score into the rotors which i don't like. im going to try a new setup next time.
sorry never heard of Raybestos.

Raybesto's are a good replacement for OEM blanks.

For $10 more per rotor I would get OEM one's though.

+1 my HPS are leaving marks (sediments?) on my cheap ass Aimico rotors.


If i was to do it again i would go with OEM rotorsand try the HPS, if not just go back to OEM on both rotors and pads

Hmmm, $10 more? A Mazda dealership quoted me $73+taxes for one front rotor

The raybestos professional grade, are going for $50 taxes in...

What is the price of front and rear rotors? OEM ones from your dealership


Thanks

Yeah, get the top of the line raybestos ones...they have 2 or 3 different lines of pads and rotors if I recall.

Yeah, they do have service grade, professional grade, and advanced grade, at $20, $50 and $85 dollars each respectively for one front rotor.

Professional grade is direct OE replacement and advanced technology is slightly better than that.


I will see if Joe can provide some details on his pricing of OEM stuff.
