Delco Pads and Rotors?

Anyone vouch for AC Delco Pads/Rotors? I have a choice of either getting OEM (which even at employee cost is silly $320cdn pads $153cdn rotors FRONT, $143 pads $99 rotors REAR)

Or i could get Delco ($55/$60 Front $59/$67 rear), stock brake dust was murder so I'd hesitate on getting OEM again even if price isnt a factor.

Main reason for getting from the dealership is employee discount. So I'd like to stay there, also availability in Canada can be iffy on non OEM stuff.

Go to AutoZone or Advance Auto (if you have them around)...usually can get lifetime warranty on pads and a year or so on rotors. Should be significantly less expensive too.

I just put on a set of NAPA premium rotors and ceramic pads, $185 out the door. Took less than an hour to install. Very happy now.

Nothing wrong with Delco rotors. Even better at discount price.

EBC red as they will cut most of the dust and are a quality pad.

Thanks all!

Got 66000km out of the stock brakes, still loving my SS!

Never get tired of the boost, though my winter tires took a beating this season. Been averaging -2c in the morning up to 18c by late aft :| got to get them off..
