Red Stang

I agree that the aftermarket rotors are getting crappier all the time. I bought a medium priced set for my Focus wagon (the better half's car and don't laugh it saves gas so i can drive my mustang more) put them on with new pads, drove around the block and it was like they were warped all to hell. I took them off and compared them to the original rotors and they were not only machined badly, they were also warped right from the factory. The factory in China that is! I took them back to the store, CTC and got my money back.

I put the factory rotors back on and they are still on there with no problems.

I also tried a pair of the slotted rotors from CTC that they often put on sale and they warped within a year too. That was on my old mustang.

I haven't had to replace the rotors on my current mustang but factory replacements sound like they may be a better deal in the long run. ( unless they are made in china now too? Not that there is anything wrong with that(Seinfeld))

Your experience is similar to mine, which is why I started this thread originally.
As much as I like CTC, that would be the last place I would consider getting parts from, even for my winter beater, let alone the stang.
I checked out the Napa site and they seem to have some very nice parts, cant price them today because of the Fete "Nationale" here in Qc.
If the prices are compareable to the Motorcraft parts from Ford, it will come to a choice between those two.
