It doesn't matter if they're the same, but if you're gonna get aftermarket rotors you should've gotten them for the front. The front rotors take much more abuse than the rear ones. How much did you pay at goodyear?

Ouch!!! :rippedoff $430 is a lot, considering those rotors will probably warp just like your stock rotors. You could have gotten slotted rotors, front and rear, and performance pads, front and rear, shipped to your door for that same price. And install should only take 1.5 hours max on front brakes.

Ouch is right...I'm gettin a new set of rotora slotted rotors from excelerate for $300. Guess you'll have to do the same when your rotors warp in 2 years.

You could have bought the rotors and pads from Excellerate at any time then had Goodyear install them.

Speaking of this, my rotors are warped too. First time I'll have to change them on the 02. I know on my 99 I just sucked it up and put the stock rotors back on - but I wont make that mistake again on my 02.... so what is the general concensus on the best brand of rotors (aftermarket) for my 02TLS? I'll have to do something about it this month, as I'm moving to Orlando at the end of august and will be a poor student again!

Brembo blanks or Brembo slotted/crossdrilles. Any of those three are fine rotors. I just put the Brembo blanks on. Front set is 130.00 Shipped to my doorstep. They have been nice so far, I think a step up from OEM.
