I need to change the REAR brake rotors and they're $40 each for the cheapest ones at Autozone so I'm going through RockAuto. They have a pretty big selection much cheaper. Here is the page with the products.

I'm looking at the Raybestos. I'm trying to spend $20-30 each and I'm willing to pay 30 over 20 for better quality so do you guys think the Raybestos are good? Some of them look like they wouldn't fit right? Is that because they're meant to be used with a specific aftermarket caliper or atleast pads? Or will literally any rear rotor on that page work? I'm trying to understand. The Raybestos look OEM.

I would get the Centric ones since they have the corrosion protection on the rotor hat. The hats on the Raybestos will rust pretty quickly. Either brand will work though.

If you google search "Centric Parts 120.44084", I have been using these for over 6 months no. No complaints, super quiet, and the black corrosion protection on the rotor hat has held up perfectly.
Just my 0.02

I have been using Centric also, they seem decent, get the painted ones

The previous owner equipped my 97 LS fronts with Raybestos and they're good quality. They don't have the fancy zinc or rust free coating but they haven't developed any shudder or vibration over the 35k I've had them. I paired them up with some Wagner Thermoquiet brake pads and they don't make a squeak or squeal and have good stopping power.

The P/N he purchased back in July 15' was Raybestos 96691R for $32.79 a piece off RockAuto, not sure how much they're going for now.

The pads he bought through Amazon for:

Thanks guys. I'll go with the Centric.

Also, I noticed I need to change them when I was changing the pads. It was a tight-money situation and honestly I thought the old rotors would still be good. Well they're actually pretty bad. MY POINT is, I have new pads already but they will work with the new rotors right? I mean, I know I would need to change them if I changed out the calipers but I just wanna make sure I don't need new pads too along with the Centric rotors.

How long have you had the new pads on? If the pads are in good condition just swap the rotors out.

If the pads are still smooth and not grooved or damaged from the old rotors then it would be safe to use them. If they have been damaged, then you better get new pads also. Better to be safe than sorry...

Rokas

Right. I should be good. They've been on for ten days or so. Otherwise I'll just have to get some new ones.

Thanks guys.
