Default Oem brake pads with non oem rotors?

Can it happen. I want to get the oem pads from sewell but the rotors are too rich for my blood. What do yall think. I need front and back.

yeah it can be done....use the search function. I know one person got raybesto's rotors if that helps. I personally haven't done it though. I do have aftermarket brake pads on oem rotors, which my service center machined for me.

There's no magic to rotors as much as some would like you to believe. Centric rotors will work fine with OEM pads if you want to run that setup. Raybestos markets Centric rotors as their own.

I would also make sure you really need rotors. Lots of BS floating around out there regarding this.
