Did you need new rotors or just upgrading?

I got all new rotors and pads from Autozone a few months back for under $300 total. got the highest line in each I could and put it all on myself.
considering replacing the rotors is only about $50 more vs getting them all turned it is well worth it to me

Both front rotors need to be replaced. I thought I'd do all 4 at the same time.

Who makes the rotors? Where did you get them? What pads will you be using?

Rotors are by R1concepts out of California.
I have on hand both the Posi Quiet Ceramic Pads by Centric and Carbon Metallic Pads by Performance Friction. I am leaning towards the PF Carbon Metallic because that is what I have on my Z06 Vette.
