The 130.77 was for the front set only which is what you want.
I would not waste the money on the rear since 90% (+/-) of your stopping
comes from the front brakes.

I cant seem to find the rear rotors, the part number listed is for a liberty...

this iswhat i got from above, Rear Centric Premium Rotors 12067063

Liberty and TJ share the same rear rotors. Call the dealer, get part number for one, compare it to the other.

Just installed the rotors and yellow pads. No problems, no noises, huge plus from oem. Had a problem finding the yellow pads though.

i think thats wrong. from what i found, its $45.32 for 1. is this right? so that would put it at $90.64 for the set for the front.

Next time I'm getting yellows.

P.S. - I used to worry about brake dust, which was why I choose greenstuff over the yellowstuff when I upgraded from stock pads and rotors to greenstuff and NAPA premium rotors.

Now I realize that dust is irrelevant since stopping is most important, and my wheels are usually muddy all fall, winter, and spring anyway. So my low dust greenstuff pads don't keep my wheels clean anyway. They're just as muddy with or without brakedust. The only time I can see dust is in summer, and it wouldn't kill me to wash the Jeep once in a while anyhow.

I'll get yellow next time.

P.S. - I like my NAPA premium rotors. Never heard of Centrix - who makes them?

Centric. Made in Taiwan (and likely other places.)

Just ordered my YellowStuff and Centric rotors. Thepartsbin.com with the TPB02 ($20 0ff) discount. $230.20 total.

Thanks for yet another peer pressure purchase!

Great price bro.

Well, I second, third etc the highly recommended EBC yellow pads. As others said, night and day difference. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I replaced rotors too with centric rotors so as of right now, absolutely zero concerns now with my brakes. You got to try it to believe it.

JohnnyCobra · 05-19-2009, 05:00 PM

Don't bother with http://www.autopartswarehouse.com
I just tried all day on their chat line to get them to answer me as to if the centric rotors were out of stock, or if they didn't carry them anymore. They indicated that they no longer carry them for the TJ.

Same story with thepartsbin.com - in fact, they use the same "live chat" and do not stock centric rotors for the TJs either. Only EBC, OEM, and Brembo.

So I bought the Brembos and yellowstuff. I am sure both will be an improvement over the warped originals, anyone have experience with Brembo vs Centrics?

I can't seem to find anyone that stocks both the rotors and the yellowstuff pads
