Default AutoZone Duralast Rotors???

I need to replace my rotors and am very confused by the many variations. I have read good feedback on this inexpensive rotor. I want to match them up with Hawk HPS. Any help in this dept. would be appreciated. Extra hard driving and autox are not things I do. Casual performance driver.

Then you don't want Hawk brake pads, they will constantly throw black brake dust on your wheels and are way more expensive.

Get a middle of the road rotor; there is a difference in them. A lot of times the real cheap ones are so thick on the rear that you don't have enough threads left to safely hold the wheels on.

I had the rotors from autozone and they were great. I did some hard braking and never had them warp. They are worth the money.

I use Brembo OEM Blank rotors and Hawke HPS pads that I got from TireRack.

Many on here also use AutoZone Duralast Rotors.

Some people on here have also used both for AutoX events.
(I dont AutoX, though)
