Centric 127.62095 VS EBC GD7275 Rotor

Looks like my LT is in need of new front rotors. I had the Centric SportStop drilled/slotted rotors (127.62095L and R) with NAPA ultra premium ceramic brake pads, and they lasted for 2 years with around 20K miles/year driven.


NAPA is having a hard time locating the Centric rotors, so looking online I came across the EBC 3GD dimpled/slotted rotors (GD7275). They're a little more than the Centric's, but I've seen mixed reviews on them.

What are some opinions on the EBC's? Obviously longevity does vary on driver, but any input would be appreciated!

You only got 40K out of them?

I currently have over 70K on my cheap "premium" rotors and ceramic pads. I paid about $70 for the package.

The pads are getting close, but the rotors barely have a ridge.

Rock Auto has those Centric rotors for $66.89 each.

I use to have to replace my brakes/rotors on a yearly basis before I switched to the ceramic/premium rotor setup. Rotors need to be replaced because of the rust forming around the drilled/slotted cuts, so they might get too brittle soon.

And that's a great price for the Centric's! Thanks for the info Steve!!
