2004 FX4 Rotors

What is a decent replacement rotor. I don't need any of the fancy slotted and drilled rotors. Are NAPA premium rotors any good? What is a good rotor in the $60 range give or take a few dollars. I am replacing the pads with Wagner TQ and my rotors are pretty grooved so I am replacing them too but don't want to spend a small fortune on them.

Rotors aren't cheap. I think the Ford factory rotors are ~$70 each.

I just replaced all of mine with PowerSlot rotors ($100 each, on sale) and Hawk pads.

Do the work yourself and save some $$. That way you can spring for some decent rotors and pads.

Both are much better than OTC rotors. Used with Hawk LTS pads you should be good to go. I have them at $74 front and $70 rear...
