I gave $18 dollars a piece for rear rotors for the Cutlass from NAPA when I changed the rear skocks at the same time. They wanted $15 a piece to turn them, so new ones were the way to go.

meh the cheap rotors arnt bad, I personally sell the cheapies all day long and have never herd of a complaint or had any come back. The only thing the ultra premiums have on the regular ones is noise dampening steel supposivly. Im gonna get the good ones for my 6000, That damn thing a rotor warping machine, i swear

If you get the cheap-o's, don't get ceramic pads.  I had the cheap-o's on my old Lumina with ceramic pads and they warped within a couple of months.

nah i think just some normal pads, nothing too special. going to bleed the lines and run some new fluid all the way around and get new flexible lines too from the body to the caliper, plus i was thinking while i have the car up and apart to paint them, and put new front struts on it too.
im scared i need new ball joints and/or tierod ends too though. lol
