Default Two Problems Procuring Front Brembo Rotors...

1) No one seem to have the brand stocked, and
2) I'm not even sure which ones are SUPPOSED to be on my car! It's an early '04, vin WAUML44EX4N001183. I cannot quite make out the PN on the old rotor, looks like 4E0A/800F. It is 355 mm across, and choices are all 360mm - do they round up? There is a very deep ridge around the outer perimeter from pad wear. Not sure it is the correct pad/disc combo.
Found this fitment info, which is helpful,Edit: I just noticed they're all the same pn except one is coated and one is not. Derp I know ATE and Pagid are OEM but had one warp once and can't remember which , never trouble with Brembo...
Also want EBC Redstuf but not afraid to go with ATE or Pagid if anyone has a deal going, want low dust, yet good rotor life.
Any input appreciated, I'm not going to whine at anyone if they have a suggestion from personal experience. Just don't tell me to STFA - I've wasted 2 days on that!

Love,
Tom

Default Checked; try AutohausAZ for Brembo

http://www.autohausaz.com/search/pro...0Brake%20Rotor

Should be free shipping over $75 too, which for brake rotors can be a big price swing.
