Re: Replacing front & back Rotars

I wouldn't use anything else other than stock type rotors. You may be
sorry, you may not. Check with Blaufergnugen or VW parts. their prices are
very close to that. Always check with the dealer, though. I did see a
dealer underprice by half and be about $5 cheaper than the outlet prices.
