Hub Puller

I want to change my front rotors (I already replaced my rear ones).
Which of the two will best suit for my Acura CL 2.2 1997.

Thanks

you will probably need an air chisel with the smoothing adapter like it states in the manual to seperate the hub from the knuckle... you risk screwing up your wheel bearing if you just hammer away at it...

Does anyone know whether Excelerate still sells ROTORA rotors?

If not, what do you think of these ones from ebay?

Bought the rotors. Waiting for the shipment to commence the dirty work.

acuratl_2nr, I was asking about the hub puller because I read some DIY on a Honda Accord 97 with the hub over the rotor, where the dude uses a hub puller.

The air chisel part in this guide is putting me off since I don't have air tools.

Any other alternatives?

Yes, didn't know either, but the thing can surely do the work. Am also waiting for the shipment.

97BlackAckCL, I read a post somewhere that you prefer Axxis/PBR pads.
Now, Rotora pads (assuming Excelerate has some) vs Axxis. Which ones do you prefer? Or rather what do you have on your CL. & Any idea where I can get Axxis?

I don't want to have this problem, see link:
