Take off rear rotors

I need new rotors on my 05, ford wants to charge me like 300 for front and rear, I found front on newtakeoff.com for 39.00, I can't find rears, do aftermarket companies actually remove the rear rotors? Does anybody know where I can find a set of takeoff rear rotors?


Thanks

Autozone has replacements for about $42.

I think the ford rotors are your best bet. Price is not all that horrible, and I have yet to warp one.

If you do go aftermarket, what you want is Wagner, Raybestos, or Bendix. Made in USA or germany. Brembo's premium rotors are good too.

Steer clear of the chinese stuff.

I have the R1Concepts rotors. They are nice looking, but will most likely not take a track day. I have put about 12K miles on mine and I'm fairly aggressive so I can attest that if you drive the car on the road you will be happy with these. Price for all 4 is about $300 and it is a performance / cosmetic change.

Check with Brenspeed. He used to carry them. I got a set a few months back, almost like new.

Does TRW make aftermarket brake parts for the Mustang?
Anyone know how the price compares to "Ford OEM"?


Enquiring minds want to know

That's because it's cheap Chinese crap. I would not buy any parts for any of my vehicle from Autozone. There cheap dollar wise for a reason.

For the Money the R1/Rotorpros/Centric Branded rotors are the way to go.
They actually have a OEM style as well and they will be even less than the slotted and drilled. Send Rich at Rotorpros a email and see if he can also get the OEM Replacements he also has some nice pads he sells with his rotors. I would imagine a set of front and rears would be fairly inexpensive.

Email or call newtakeoff.com. They have rear rotors, even though they not listed on their website. I got a pair a few months ago for the same price as a pair of fronts.
