I'm curious what rotors really suck and which ones dont I'm not looking for generic "drilled rotors suck" kind of comments. I'm looking for actual experience with actual brands. What have you had bad luck with, what have you had good luck with?

Hans..you'll find the brands are equal across years.

If you've had wearever or duralast, you'll find they warp easily. Bendix, Raybestos etc premiums will treat you right on any year car.

I put premium grade Raybestos on 3 years (~70 k miles) ago. Wear was average but they rusted somewhat quicker than average. These seemed the best value considering my local sources so I went to buy new ones of the same.
The set I got 3 years ago were made in USA but the new ones are made in China.
I passed on that deal. Still casually looking for good ones myself.
