Your best bet with rotors is from our vendor moparsupercenter.com. They have the best price on what I belive are our oem rotors. As far as pads go if your more concerned with less dust then most go with our other vendor dave Zs posi quiets. Alot of others including myself go with a set of BENDIX pads because of the great price and because the stopping power is basically the same as our stock pads. You can pick up a set of the bendix pads on amazon for around $100 total.

^^^What he said.

I did my rears with the MoparSupercenter rotors and the Bendix pads. Perfect ! Still got SRT8 stopping power with a bargain basement cost. I'll live with the dust.

I hated the dust, so I went with Satisfied Ceramic pads from BMC... virtually no dust compared to stock. Slightly less stopping power than stock, but still plenty for the street. Those with posi-quiets seem to have the same results.

Confirmed. posi-quiets are silent, dustless (well, virtually. You'll get your wheels dirtier with road grime than brake dust), and a bit less agressive than stock.

Check

How did you decide yo needed new rotors?

They should be measured for thickness, the spec is stamped right into them.

Mine lasted through two sets of pads. But I only run the stockers as I like the 'bite' the originals have.

Wear your brake dust proudly!

depends

16-20k miles is typical, with the rears going first due to BLD.

Let me preface this by saying that at least 1/3 of my driving is highway miles of the crossing-several-states-in-one-go variety, but I have 45k on my posi-quiets...and they still have 2/3 of their meat!!! I was shocked when I checked them out. Seriously, I put them on about 2 months after I bought the car...and they could well outlast the transmission fluid...I don't know what DZ sold me, but these pads are freakish!
