Bargain pads and rotors needed
I have a 2010 with p/31. I'm going to be selling this car soon and need to replace the rear pads and rotors. Does anyone have suggestions for a budget set?

Someone had posted about this before and had a source, but I can't remember the details. Run a search here or on Google, and it should pop up (that's how I happened upon it recently).

Not cool
OP - knowingly putting crap parts on a car in order to offload it to someone else is - in my book at least - completely dishonest and a scam. You either leave the car with the worn parts and let the buyer replace them, or you grow a spine, spend the extra $200 and put on a set of OEM rotors. Otherwise I can't help but think that on the evolutionary scale you're somewhere just below pond scum.
How would you feel to find out that your P31 had crappy aftermarket brakes when you bought it? If it's OK for you to pull a fast one on the next owner, I guess you'd be OK with being scammed yourself?
The rears are already pretty cheap anyway - they're not two-piece like the fronts. You have no excuse not to get proper C63 rotors, period.

Wholeheartedly agree. Rear rotors are cheap.
